“Until film is just as easily accessible as a pen or pencil, then it's not completely an art form. In painting you can just pick up a piece of chalk, a stick or whatever. In sculpture you can get a rock. Writing you just need a pencil and paper.” NeedsWritingArtFilmFormPiecesRocksPaintingPaperPicksSticksPensPencilsSculptureChalk Author:Forest Whitaker
“Painting, like water, takes any form. Paint is a film of pigment on a plane. It is not real in the way that gravity-bound sculpture is real. It is, however, real.” WayRealFilmFormWaterPaintingPaintBoundsPlanesGravitySculpturePigment Book:Squeak Carnwath, recent paintings: September 8-October 8, 1994, John Berggruen Gallery Source: Squeak Carnwath, recent paintings: September 8-October 8, 1994, John Berggruen Gallery
“But once a culture develops sufficiently to become skeptical, the idea of censorship becomes less attractive. To suppress a book or a picture or a sculpture or a play or a film is a terrible act of aggression against the artist who created it. This is a miming of capital punishment; it destroys the life that has been emanated by a life.” Has BeensBookIdeasPlayFilmArtistCultureTerribleSpeechPunishmentAttractiveCensorshipAggressionSkepticismSculptureSkepticalCapital Punishment Author:Rebecca West
