Text Quotes
To be an artist, one must... never shirk from the truth as he understands it, never withdraw from life (Artist Quotes)
As in creating some significant work the artist first experiences something akin to dream awareness that becomes clarified in the creative process itself, so we must first have a vision of the future sufficiently entrancing that it will sustain us in the transformation of the human project that is now in process (Artist Quotes)
There is an artist imprisoned in each one of us. Let him loose to spread joy everywhere (Artist Quotes)
Nobody has a perfect life. What you see on the screen is the best of the artist (Artist Quotes)
The true artist does not create art as an end in itself; he creates art for human beings. Humanity is the goal (Artist Quotes)
For me it is the direct contact of artist to material which is original, and it is the earth and his contact to it which will free him of the artificiality of the present and his dependence on industrial products (Artist Quotes)
An artist can accomplish anything provided he doesn’t accept facts or defeat for more than a few minutes (Artist Quotes)
Every person who is really an artist desires to create inside of himself another, deeper, more interesting life than the one that actually surrounds him (Artist Quotes)
Never lose yourself on the stage. Always act in your own person, as an artist. The moment you lose yourself on the stage marks the departure from truly living your part and the beginning of exaggerated false acting. Therefore, no matter how much you act, how many parts you take, you should never allow yourself any exception to the rule of using your own feelings. To break that rule is the equivalent of killing the person you are portraying, because you deprive him of a palpitating, living, human soul, which is the real source of life for a part (Artist Quotes)
The artist is always a servant, and is perpetually trying to pay for the gift that has been given to him as if by miracle. Modern man, however, does not want to make any sacrifice, even though true affirmation of self can only be expressed in sacrifice (Artist Quotes)
The worst scientist is he who is not an artist; the worst artist is he who is no scientist (Artist Quotes)
True dreams and visions should be as visible to the artist as the phenomena of the objective world (Artist Quotes)
An artist must approach his work in the spirit of the criminal about to commit a crime (Artist Quotes)
As an artist I have always tried to be faithful to my vision of life, and I have frequently been in conflict with those who wanted me to paint not what I saw but what they wished me to see (Artist Quotes)
Rapacity plus taste is a formidable combination, since it so often passes for intelligence. One pities the artist in a world of such predators, all of whom are deeply engaged in the arts too (Artist Quotes)
In creating a work of art, the psyche or soul of the artist ascends from the earthly realm into the heavenly. There, free of all images, the soul is fed in contemplation by the essences of the highest realm, knowing the permanent noumena of things. Then, satiated with this knowing, it descends again to the earthly realm. And precisely at the boundary between the two worlds, the soul’s spiritual knowledge assumes the shapes of symbolic imagery: and it is these images that make permanent the work of art. Art is thus materialized dream, separated from the ordinary consciousness of waking life (Artist Quotes)
A picture is first of all a product of the imagination of the artist; it must never be a copy (Artist Quotes)
An exhibition is in many ways a series of conversations. Between the artist and viewer, curator and viewer, and between the works of art themselves. It clicks when an exhibition feels like it has answered some questions, and raised even more (Artist Quotes)
Art is art, nature is nature, you cannot improve upon it... Pictures should be inspired by nature, but made in the soul of the artist. It is the soul of the individual that counts (Artist Quotes)
To be an artist means to search, to find and look at these realities. To be an artist means to never look away (Artist Quotes)
I’m realistic about my age and realistic about the fact that there’s an awful lot less in front of me than there is behind me. I’ve always felt that music is an art form that deserves to live the life of the artist (Artist Quotes)
I think the most important thing any artist can do is to constantly push themselves and improve their craft (Artist Quotes)
Poetry criticism at its worst today is mean in spirit and spiteful in intent, as if determined to inflict the wound that will spur the artist to new heights if it does not cripple him or her (Artist Quotes)
It’s getting too late in my life to care about the small things. It’s getting too late to not be brave, to not live my life fully, to not try to be an artist. Trivial things like how nice your hotel room is, or if you have to be naked for a while, they fade away (Artist Quotes)
I am an artisan. I only became an artist when people watch what I do. That is when it becomes art (Artist Quotes)
Believing in yourself and what you do is so important. It took me a long time to find that confidence. If you’re an artist and you’re taking risks, then you’re doing something right if some people don’t get it (Artist Quotes)
Writing graffiti is about the most honest way you can be an artist. It takes no money to do it, you don’t need an education to understand it, and there’s no admission fee (Artist Quotes)
A successful artist is inspired by his muse, and his muse is inspired by the payment of a commission (Artist Quotes)
When the individuality of the artist begins to express itself, what the artist gains in the way of liberty he loses in the way of order (Artist Quotes)
Let them understand above all that the artist works from necessity; that he, too, is a minute element of the world to whom one should ascribe no more importance than so many things in nature which charm us but which we do not explain to ourselves (Artist Quotes)
