As man realizes that he’s an accident and he’s futility, and he’s completely really futile being, that he has to play out the game without reason. Man can only attempt to make something very very positive by trying to beguile himself for a time, by the way he behaves (...) All art has become completely a game by which man distracts himself. What is fascinating actually is, this is going to be much more difficult for the artist because he must really deepen the game to be any good at all and return the onlooker to life more violently.
Francis Bacon
