"Also, since art is a vehicle for the transmission of ideas through form, the reproduction of the form only reinforces the concept. It is the idea that is being reproduced. Anyone who understands the work of art owns it. We all own the Mona Lisa."
Sol LeWitt
Floor Piece, 1976
"I have no fears about making changes, destroying the image, etc, because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through. It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.”
Jackson Pollock
We have been trained to see painting as "pictures", with storytelling connotations, abstract or literal, in a space usually limited and enclosed by a frame, which isolates the image. It has been shown that there are possibilities other than this manner of "seeing" painting. An image could be said to be "real" if it is not an optical reproduction, if it does not symbolize or describe so as to call up a mental picture. This "real" or "absolute" image is only confined by our limited perception.

"I am attracted to generic or 'industrial' colours; paper bag brown, file cabinet gray, industrial green, that kind of thing."

"I think “abstract” is a weird word to apply to photography; de- or re-contextualized might be better. You’re recording light and light is. With analogue photography, there’s a fundamental connection to – maybe not “reality,” but physical phenomenon right? The pictures are of something that very much exists. Regardless of how we perceive reality, light is. It’s outside of ourselves, and it is."

"I was always primarily interested in form alone, but then to make a form, you have to make it out of something. So color seemed a natural material to use, because color is abstract."

"There is a strong and conscious relationship between my work and nature which finally manifests itself in an impersonal expression."
Theodoros Stamos
Infinity Field, Creten Series Rizitika #4
"A painting, you know, it's all dirty material. But it's about transformation. Taking that earth, that heavy earthen kind of thing, turning it into air and light."
Brice Marden
Green Study
“You are creating something and it is in movement, you are moving round the clay and the clay is moving with you so there is that extraordinary sense of conversation with material and it’s an intensely physical visceral, bodily thing that’s going on, so there is that movement at the heart of making."
Edmund De Waal

“Being creative is not so much the desire to do something as the listening to that which wants to be done: the dictation of the materials.”
Anni Albers
Study for A 1968
Brice Marden on Cold Mountain 6 Bridge
"The artist constructs a new symbol with his brush. This symbol is not a recognizable form of anything which is already finished, already made, already existing in the world - it is a symbol of a new world, which is being built upon and which exists by way of people."
El Lissitzky
Proun
"If one says 'red' - the name of color - and there are fifty people listening, it can be expected that there will be fifty reds in their minds. And one can be sure that all these reds will be very different."
Josef Albers

"Work only needs to be interesting."
Donald Judd
