More quotes by Georges Braque
Art is made to trouble but 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
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
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
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
Nature is a mere pretext for a decorative composition, plus sentiment. It suggests emotion, and I translate that emotion into art.
Georges Braque
Limited means often constitute the charm and force of primitive painting. Extension, on the contrary, leads the arts to decadence.
Georges Braque
Illusions... are simple facts, but they have been created by the mind, by the spirit, and they are one of the justifications of the new spatial configuration.
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
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
Poetry' is what distinguishes the cubist paintings Picasso and I arrived at intuitively from the lifeless sort of painting those who followed us tried, with such unfortunate results, to arrive at theoretically.
Georges Braque
Perspective is a ghastly mistake which it has taken four centuries to redress.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
Colour could give rise to sensations which would interfere with our conception of space.
Georges Braque
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
Emotion should not be rendered by an excited trembling it can neither be added on nor be imitated. It is the seed, the work is the flower.
Georges Braque
We will never have repose. The present is perpetual.
Georges Braque
Poetry is to a painting what life is to man.
Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
