- It
is not the form
that dictates the color,
but the color that brings out the form.
Hans
Hofmann Quotes - Artists
- One
of the weaknesses
of much abstract
painting
is the attempt to substitute the inventions
of the intellect
for a pristine imaginative
conception. The inner
life of a human being is a vast and varied
realm and does not concern itself alone with
stimulating arrangements of color,
form
and design.
The term 'life'
as used in art
is something not to be held in contempt, for
it applies all of its existence, and the province
of art is to react to it and not to shun it.
Painting will have to deal more fully and less
obliquely with life and nature's
phenomena before it can again be great.
Edward
Hopper Quotes - Artists
- Color
is sensibility in material form,
matter in its primordial state.
Yves
Klein Quotes - Artists
- We
get used to a certain kind of color
of form
or format, and it's acceptable. And to puncture
that is sticking your neck out a bit. And then
pretty soon, that's very acceptable.
Lee
Krasner Quotes - Female
Artists - Artists
- It
would start with a color, a form,
and it begins dictating to me what's needed
in terms of color
as well as form.
Lee
Krasner Quotes - Female
Artists - Artists
- Color
is crucial in painting,
but it is very hard to talk
about. There is almost nothing you can say
that holds up as a generalization, because it
depends on too many factors: size, modulation,
the rest of the field, a certain consistency
that color has with forms,
and the statement you're trying to make.
Roy
Lichtenstein Quotes - Artists
- Form
is all we have to help us cope with fundamentally
chaotic facts and assaults. Formulating something
is a great start. I trust
form, trust my feeling
or capacity to find the right form for something.
Even if that is only by being well organized.
That too is form.
Gerhard
Richter Quotes - Artists
- Im
not an abstractionist.
Im not interested in the relationship
of color
or form
or anything else. Im interested only in
expressing
basic human
emotions: tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so
on.
Mark
Rothko Quotes - Artists
