Josef Albers

Josef Albers
Learn to see and to feel life that is, cultivate imagination, because there are still marvels in the world, because life is a mystery and always will be. But be aware of it.
Josef Albers
If you don't do it my way, I suggest you commit suicide.
Josef Albers
Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers.
Josef Albers
A thing is never seen as it really is.
Josef Albers
Therefore art means: you have to believe, to have faith, that is, cultivate vision.
Josef Albers
The role of art for me is the visualization of attitude, of the human attitude towards life, towards the world.
Josef Albers
Independent of harmony rules, any color 'goes' or 'works' with any other color, presupposing that their quantities are appropriate.
