More quotes by Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
We will never have repose. The present is perpetual.
Georges Braque
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
Whatever is in common is true but likeness is false.
Georges Braque
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
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
You put a blob of yellow here, and another at the further edge of the canvas: straight away a rapport is established between them. Colour acts in the way that music does.
Georges Braque
Limited means often constitute the charm and force of primitive painting. Extension, on the contrary, leads the arts to decadence.
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
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
Nature is a mere pretext for a decorative composition, plus sentiment. It suggests emotion, and I translate that emotion into art.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
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
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
The space between the dish and the pitcher, that I paint also.
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
In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that cannot be explained.
Georges Braque
Thanks to the oval I have discovered the meaning of the horizontal and the vertical.
Georges Braque
I am much more interested in achieving unison with nature than in copying it.
Georges Braque
