We Assert That The Subject

The Picture Must Be... A Revelation, An Unexpected And Unprecedented Resolution Of An Eternally Familiar Need.

With Us The Disguise Must Be Complete. The Familiar Identity Of Things Has To Be Pulverized In Order To Destroy The Finite Associations With Which Our Society Increasingly Enshrouds Every Aspect Of Our Environment.

The Myth Holds Us, Therefore, Not Through Its Romantic Flavor, Not The Remembrance Of Beauty Of Some Bygone Age, Not Through The Possibilities Of Fantasy, But Because It Expresses To Us Something Real And Existing In Ourselves, As It Was To Those Who First Stumbled Upon The Symbols To Give Them Life.

The Most Interesting Painting Is One That Expresses More Of What One Thinks Than Of What One Sees

A Picture Lives By Companionship, Expanding And Quickening In The Eyes Of The Sensitive Observer. It Dies By The Same Token. It Is Therefore Risky To Send It Out Into The World. How Often It Must Be Impaired By The Eyes Of The Unfeeling And The Cruelty Of The Impotent.
