More quotes by Georges Braque
Art disturbs, science reassures.
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
Painting is a nail to which I fasten my ideas.
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
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
With age, art and life become one.
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
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
In a painting, what counts is the unexpected.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that cannot be explained.
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
Whatever is in common is true but likeness is false.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
Thanks to the oval I have discovered the meaning of the horizontal and the vertical.
Georges Braque
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
Georges Braque
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Georges Braque
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
