When I work with forms and colors, I get the edge.” WantHappensFormBlackWhiteColorQuietMassEdgesBlack And WhiteNot Interested Author:Ellsworth Kelly
“I have worked to free shape from its ground, and then to work the shape so that it has a definite relationship to the space around it; so that it has a clarity and a measure within itself of its parts (angles, curves, edges and mass); and so that, with color and tonality, the shape finds its own space and always demands its freedom and separateness.” SpaceColorShapesDemandMassEdgesClarityDefiniteAngleCurvesSeparateness Book:Ellsworth Kelly in San Francisco Source: Ellsworth Kelly in San Francisco
