More quotes by 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
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
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
We will never have repose. The present is perpetual.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
It is the limitation of means that determines style, gives rise to new forms and makes creativity possible.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
Poetry is to a painting what life is to man.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
Limited means often constitute the charm and force of primitive painting. Extension, on the contrary, leads the arts to decadence.
Georges Braque
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
With age, art and life become one.
Georges Braque
Art disturbs, science reassures.
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
Nature is a mere pretext for a decorative composition, plus sentiment. It suggests emotion, and I translate that emotion into art.
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
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
Georges Braque
