“Only when the habit of one's consciousness to see in paintings bits of nature, madonnas and shameless nudes... has disappeared, shall we see a pure painting composition.” BitsConsciousnessPaintingHabitPureCompositionShameless Author:Kazimir Malevich
“Starting with approaching the spot where the painting is to be done, meanwhile realising the emptiness of the mind, up to the method of 'the flying white', of the rule of the singular stroke of the brush.. ..there is a proper tradition in which the artist is fully aware of the fact that only the pure and empty spontaneity enables him to embrace without hesitating all apparitions and to truly penetrate into the roots of things.” MindDoneFactsArtistWhitePaintingPureTraditionRootsEmptyMethodEmbraceStartingFlyingSpotsEmptinessRealisingStrokesBrushesPenetrateSpontaneityApparitions Author:Antoni Tapies

“Pure painting or the art of drawing whose point of departure is based on purely formal criteria is,in my opinion,passé. I do not reject it if other artists make attempts,but as far as I am concerned,this is what I believe. if I do not place a text next to my drawings,I consider the work on such programmes to be futile.” IfsBelieveArtArtistNextI BelieveOpinionPaintingPureConcernedDrawingRejectsFormalCriteriaDepartureProgrammes Author:Gunter Brus

“I encourage film students who are interested in cinematography to study sculpture, paintings, music, writing and other arts. Filmmaking consists of all the arts combined. Students are always asking me for advice, and I tell them that they have to be enthusiastic, because it's hard work. The only way to enjoy it is to be totally immersed. If you don't get involved on that level, it could be a very miserable job. I only have one regret about my career: I'm sorry that we are not making silent movies any more. That is the purest art form I can imagine.” IfsWayWritingArtI CanHardJobsFilmFormEnjoyLevelsMusicCareersStudyImagineAdviceStudentsPaintingRegretHard WorkInvolvedPureAskingSilentSorryMiserableCombinationCinemaMovieFilmmakingI'm SorrySculptureGet InvolvedEnthusiasticInvolvementCinematographySilent MoviesMusic WritingFilm Students Author:Vilmos Zsigmond

“I would advise puppeteering for any artist. It's a way to break down pretensions. It's a sculpture that can talk. It's a painting that can talk. And it's pure play. I think every artist needs to stay in touch with the idea of playing. The artist should always be playing, always. All art is performance.” ThinkingWayNeedsShouldArtIdeasPlayArtistBreakPaintingPureArt IsPerformancesBreaking DownSculptureAdvisePretension Author:Wayne White
“You see, for me a painting is a dramatic action in the course of which the reality finds itself split apart. For me, that dramatic action takes precedence over all other considerations. The pure plastic act is only secondary as far as I'm concerned. What counts is the drama of that plastic art, the moment at which the universe comes out of itself and meets its own destruction.” ArtMomentsRealityActionUniverseCoursesPaintingDramaPureConcernedDestructionDramaticConsiderationPlasticSplitsPrecedence Author:Francoise Gilot
“I started getting really curious about art. I read about the Dadaists and the Futurists and the Constructivists - those kind of movements which were reflecting the angst of the people of their times. Their work was trying to lead a movement. I began thinking about what was happening, with painting on the streets and painting on the trains as being similar but also coming from a real, pure space. It wasn't being created by academies. It was a spontaneous combustion of ideas that just happened.” PeopleThinkingTryingKindArtIdeasRealSpaceHappenedStreetsMovementPaintingPureHappeningsTrainCuriousSpontaneousReflectingAcademyAngstCombustionFuturistSpontaneous Combustion Author:Jeffrey Deitch
