More quotes by Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
Colour could give rise to sensations which would interfere with our conception of space.
Georges Braque
The painter thinks in terms of form and color. The goal is not to be concerned with the reconstitution of an anecdotal fact, but with constitution of a pictorial fact.
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
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
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
It is the limitation of means that determines style, gives rise to new forms and makes creativity possible.
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
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
Whatever is valuable in painting is precisely what one is incapable of talking about.
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
In a painting, what counts is the unexpected.
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
With age, art and life become one.
Georges Braque
Art disturbs, science reassures.
