“The effort of painting from life has cost my models a great deal of physical discomfort, and cost me a great deal of money in model fees...

“Above the care of Nature and of State, Suspended in the noon of Night we wait, All slumber nursing, to make sweet and pure, While secret Nature, weaving works the cure. We are the handmaids of the hollow night, The angels of the dark, restoring sight; We go -- the pains of Day to soothe, console -- Awake, arise! Behold thou art made whole.”

“Our characteristic response to the mutilated statue, the bronze dug up from the earth, is revealing. It is not that we prefer time-worn bas-reliefs, or rusted statuettes as such, nor is it the vestiges of death that grip us in them, but those of life.

Art Made Earth Left Dark Struggle Materials Response Chaos Ancient Characteristics Relief Works Of Art Scar Worn Reminders Revealing Statues Thrust Determinism Underworld Bronze Mutilation

Giving Art Made Facts Shows Hate Order Loses Effort Moral Movement Direct Machines I Hate Fantastic Vain Spontaneous Presentation Demonstration Symbolic Fables Allegory

Author:Luigi Pirandello
