“For me art is a continuous discovery into reality, an exploration of visual data which has been going on for centuries, each artist contributing to the next generation's advancement.

“The edge of a painting is its frontier... where the artist negotiates his boundaries with the real world... where art begins and ends and where the eye enters and leaves the image. It determines, in an infinitely subtle number of ways, how you read a painting - which, unlike a book or a piece of music, has no pre-determined beginning or end.” WorldWayArtBookRealEndsEyeArtistNumbersPiecesPaintingArt IsEdgesDetermineDeterminedBoundariesSubtleReal WorldFrontiers Author:Andrew Graham-Dixon
“Art is universal. It unites mankind in common brotherhood. As a missionary of civilization, its message is both to heart and mind. Distinctions of tongue or boundary lines disappear before the power of truths, which, like the rainbow, charm by the beauty of variegated hues, or, combined with light, illuminate the universe. Moreover, art is the connecting link in the chain of great minds. Through its language, thought appeals to thought, and sympathy echoes feeling.” MindHeartArtFeelingsLightUniverseLanguageLinesCommonMankindCivilizationMessagesArt IsUniversalTongueDisappearBoundariesChainsAppealsCharmDistinctionLinksBrotherhoodMissionaryRainbowEchoesHeart And MindConnectingHueGreat Minds Book:Art-hints: Architecture, Sculpture and Painting Source: Art-hints: Architecture, Sculpture and Painting
“Sport strips away personality, letting the white bone of character shine through. Sport gives players an opportunity to know and test themselves. The great difference between sport and art is that sport, like a sonnet, forces beauty within its own system. Art, on the other hand, cyclically destroys boundaries and breaks free.” KnowsGivingArtCharacterHandsOpportunityForceSportsDifferencesWhiteBreakPlayerPersonalityArt IsTestsShiningBonesBoundariesSonnetBeauty Within Author:Rita Mae Brown

“What's important about the artists we learn about in art history and see in all the art books is that they have somehow pushed the boundaries of what people think art is or should be, and that's how they've made their work relevant. That's what I'm trying to figure out for myself.” PeopleThinkingShouldTryingArtMadeImportantBookArtistFiguresArt IsBoundariesRelevantWhat's ImportantArt History Author:Kadir Nelson
