More quotes by Georges Braque
Art is made to trouble but science reassures.
Georges Braque
I find that it is important to work slowly. Anyone who looks at such a canvas will follow the same path the artist took, and he will experience that it is the path which counts more than the outcome of it, and that the route taken has been the most interesting part.
Georges Braque
The function of Art is to disturb. Science reassures.
Georges Braque
In a painting, what counts is the unexpected.
Georges Braque
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges Braque
What greatly attracted me - and it was the main line of advance of Cubism - was how to give material expression to this new space of which I had an inkling. So I began to paint chiefly still lifes, because in nature there is a tactile, I would almost say a manual space... that was the earliest Cubist painting - the quest for space.
Georges Braque
Nature is a mere pretext for a decorative composition, plus sentiment. It suggests emotion, and I translate that emotion into art.
Georges Braque
With age, art and life become one.
Georges Braque
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
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
Perspective starts from one viewpoint and never gets away from it. But the viewpoint is quite unimportant. It is though someone were to draw profiles all his life, leading people to think that a man has only one eye.
Georges Braque
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
It is the limitation of means that determines style, gives rise to new forms and makes creativity possible.
Georges Braque
Colour could give rise to sensations which would interfere with our conception of space.
Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
