More quotes by Georges Braque
Colour could give rise to sensations which would interfere with our conception of space.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
Art disturbs, science reassures.
Georges Braque
Whatever is in common is true but likeness is false.
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
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 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
In a painting, what counts is the unexpected.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
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
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
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
Limited means often constitute the charm and force of primitive painting. Extension, on the contrary, leads the arts to decadence.
Georges Braque
Painting is a nail to which I fasten my ideas.
Georges Braque
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges Braque
