Viewer Quotes

If to the viewer’s eyes, my world appears less beautiful than his, I’m to be pitied and the viewer praised Picture Quote #1

I hope they see the genuine side of me, of my music, of my voice. I hope that they feel me. I hope that what I sing and what I say really gets across to the viewer because everything that comes out is true Picture Quote #1

A woman doing comedy doesn’t offend me, but sets me back a bit. I, as a viewer, have trouble with it. I think of her as a producing machine that brings babies in the world Picture Quote #1

The artist’s aim is not to instruct the viewer, but to give information, whether the viewer understands the information is incidental to the artist Picture Quote #1

At its best, film should be like a ski jump. It should give the viewer the option of taking flight, while the act of jumping is left up to him Picture Quote #1

Whenever you finish an artwork and the viewer comes and views it, at that moment you’ve given up control Picture Quote #1

I want to break into the acting industry. It’s something I have a great deal of respect for; it’s a passion of mine. It’s so amazing, the differences between acting and being an athlete, but the one commonality is they both evoke emotion in the viewer. And those emotions are real. So I think that’s pretty cool Picture Quote #1

The tools are real. The viewer is real, you, the artist, is real and a part of everything you paint. You connect yourself to the viewer by sharing something that is inside of you that connects with something inside of him. All you have as your guide is that you know what moves you. All you have to do it with is a brush, some chemical and canvas, and technique Picture Quote #1

A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it. It is, in a word, effective Picture Quote #1

What is of value is that a particular photographer sees the subject differently than I do. A good picture must be a completely individual expression which intrigues the viewer and forces him to think Picture Quote #1

The viewer becomes aware of himself and of his movement through the plaza. As he moves, the sculpture changes. Contraction and expansion of the sculpture result from the viewer’s movement. Step by step the perception not only of the sculpture but of the entire environment changes Picture Quote #1

I don’t really think that the technique really determines the veracity of the image. It’s what the image does to the viewer that determines whether it’s right or wrong Picture Quote #1

Bring the viewer to your side, include him in your thought. He is not a bystander. You have the power to increase his perceptions and conceptions Picture Quote #1

The context in which a photograph is seen affects the meaning the viewer draws from it Picture Quote #1

Once it is out of his hand the artist has no control over the way a viewer will perceive the work. Different people will understand the same thing in a different way Picture Quote #1

A work of art may be understood as a conductor from the artist’s mind to the viewer’s. But it may never reach the viewer, or it may never leave the artist’s mind Picture Quote #1

We take pleasure in truth and it amazes the eye of the viewer to see in stone, in canvas, or in wood an inanimate thing that seems to move Picture Quote #1

I’m not presumptuous enough to feel that people are going to feel what I have in mind, so I tell a story, you know, let them read something, that doesn’t change, that as I have said it, you know, so that’s the way I feel about the viewer, the viewer has a mind of their own and eyes of their own and they’re going to see it their way, I just hope they look Picture Quote #1

Hollywood films are alienating to the spectator because they use too much dialogue, too much explication and leave no space for the viewer. They depress me. I use direct sound, mono not stereo. Just direct sound, so for every shot there are only two sources. Sound creates an intimate effect: the sensation to feel the place. It makes the viewer enter. You have the liberty to hear what you want Picture Quote #1

Graphical excellence is that which gives to the viewer the greatest number of ideas in the shortest time with the least ink in the smallest space Picture Quote #1

To me documentary photography means making a picture so that the viewer doesn’t think about the man who made the picture. At its esthetic core is very old tradition in art: naturalism. And its purpose is to document all facets of social relationships Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

It is easy to make a picture of someone and call it a portrait. The difficulty lies in making a picture that makes the viewer care about a stranger Picture Quote #1

I like setting up problems for the viewer, like how do you visually deal with a ring when what’s usually in the center of a painting is very important? It’s like the main course isn’t there and you’re having to deal with everything around what would normally be the main course Picture Quote #1

The job of the artist is to make a gesture and really show people what their potential is. It’s not about the object, and it’s not about the image; it’s about the viewer. That’s where the art happens Picture Quote #1

I think when your image becomes so big that it’s hard for a viewer to see a character, then I think you’re in danger as an actor of being unable to perform what you should be doing Picture Quote #1

I am like the perfect horror movie viewer because I do not get scared very easily Picture Quote #1

I always say that photography’s closest cousin is poetry because of the way it sparks your imagination and leaves gaps for the viewer to fill in Picture Quote #1

I believe art should be an integral part of life. I try to give my work an almost magical energy that makes the viewer feel good Picture Quote #1

I do have strong convictions and political opinions, but I don’t think it’s necessary to imbue my photographic work with them. I use photography as a vessel for visual material to flow through, to encourage conversation with the viewer. I try to present a catalyst and invite viewers to tell their own stories Picture Quote #1
