More quotes by 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
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
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
Critics should help people see for themselves they should never try to define things, or impose their own explanations, though I admit that if... a critic's explanations serve to increase the general obscurity, that's all to the good.
Georges Braque
Painting is a nail to which I fasten my ideas.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
I do not think my painting has ever been revolutionary. It was not directed against any kind of painting. I have never wanted to prove that I was right and someone else wrong.
Georges Braque
The space between the dish and the pitcher, that I paint also.
Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
You put a blob of yellow here, and another at the further edge of the canvas: straight away a rapport is established between them. Colour acts in the way that music does.
Georges Braque
In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that cannot be explained.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Whatever is valuable in painting is precisely what one is incapable of talking about.
Georges Braque
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
