Reality Only Reveals Itself When

In Art, Progress Lies Not In An Extension, But In A Knowledge Of Limitations.

Truth Exists; Only Lies Are Invented.

Writing Is Not Describing, Painting Is Not Depicting. Verisimilitude Is Merely An Illusion.

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.

I Wanted To Create A Kind Of Substance By Means Of Brush-work. But That Is The Kind Of Discovery Which One Makes Gradually... Thus It Was That I Subsequently Began To Introduce Sand, Sawdust And Metal Filings Into My Pictures.
