More quotes by Kurt Schwitters
Invest your money in Dada! Dada is the only savings bank that pays interest in the hereafter!
Kurt Schwitters
When I adjust materials of different kinds to one another, I have taken a step in advance of mere oil painting, for in addition to playing off color against color, line against line, form against form, etc., I play off material against material, for example, wood against sackcloth.
Kurt Schwitters
My name is Kurt Schwitters... I am an artist and I nail my pictures together.
Kurt Schwitters
Inspiration,' the false artist says,'it just comes to me.' And it shows.His pictures are as like as the four walls of his room -- morning, evening, midnight, noon. For myself, I have to search for it. The whole world is your palate, but only if you reach, take hold of what you need and pocket it.
Kurt Schwitters
My name is Schwitters, Kurt Schwitters... I'm a painter and I nail my pictures... I'd like to be accepted into the Dada Club
Kurt Schwitters
The picture is a self-sufficient work of art. It is not connected to anything outside.
Kurt Schwitters

Kurt Schwitters
Art is a spiritual function of man, which aims at freeing him from life's chaos. Art is free in the use of its means in any way it likes, but is bound to its laws and to its laws alone. The minute it becomes art, it becomes much more sublime than a class distinction between proletariat and bourgeoisie.
