More quotes by Georges Braque
Art disturbs, science reassures.
Georges Braque
Whatever is valuable in painting is precisely what one is incapable of talking about.
Georges Braque
It is the limitation of means that determines style, gives rise to new forms and makes creativity possible.
Georges Braque
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges Braque
I thought that from the moment someone else could do the same as myself, there was no difference between the pictures and they should not be signed. Afterwards I realized it was not so and began to sign my pictures again. Picasso had begun again anyhow.
Georges Braque
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
Scientific perspective forces the objects in a picture to disappear away from the beholder instead of bringing them within his reach as painting should.
Georges Braque
When objects shattered into fragments appeared in my painting about 1909, this for me was a way of getting closest to the object... Fragmentation helped me to establish space and movement in space.
Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
When one reaches this state of harmony between things and one's self, one reaches a state of perfect freedom and peace-which makes everything possible and right. Life becomes perpetual revelation.
Georges Braque
I considered that the painter's personality should be kept out of things, and therefore pictures should be anonymous. It was I who decided that pictures should not be signed, and for a time Picasso did the same.
Georges Braque
If we had never met Picasso, would Cubism have been what it is? I think not. The meeting with Picasso was a circumstance in our lives.
Georges Braque
In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that cannot be explained.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
Georges Braque
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
Georges Braque
