Re: For a Slow News Day: A few quotes by (or about) the Artist Paul Cézanne
Cezanne Father.jpg In his 1945 essay entitled "Cézanne's Doubt", Merleau-Ponty discusses how Cézanne gave up classic artistic elements such as pictorial arrangements, single view perspectives, and outlines that enclosed color in an attempt to get a "lived perspective" by capturing all the complexit...

Re: For a Slow News Day: A few quotes by (or about) the Artist Paul Cézanne
Paul_Cézanne_-_The_Basket_of_Apples.jpg In my ideal of a good painting; there's unity. The drawing and the color are no longer distinct; as soon as you paint you draw; the more the colors harmonize, the more precise the drawing becomes. I know that from experience. When the color is at its richest,...

Re: For a Slow News Day: A few quotes by (or about) the Artist Paul Cézanne
Compress_5147.jpg That's my great ambition. To be sure! Every time I attack a canvas, I feel convinced, I believe that something's going to come of it. But I immediately remember that I've always failed before. Then I taste blood. I never know where I am going or where I want to go with this damned...

Montagne-Sainte-Victoire-770x603.jpg With a little bit of temperament one can manage to be a painter. It's enough to have a sense of art, and that sense is no doubt what the bourgeoisie fear most. For a painter, sensation is at the bottom of everything. I will go on repeating it forever. Procedures...

Compress_20230913_131019_9118.jpg Treat nature in terms of the cylinder, the sphere, and the cone, the whole put into perspective so that each side of an object, or of a plane, leads towards a central point. Lines parallel to the horizon give breadth, whether a sections of nature, or, if you prefer...

Re: For a Slow News Day: A few quotes by (or about) the Artist Paul Cézanne
Le-moulin_sur_la_Couleuvre_a_Pontoise.jpg As with the old masters, for Cézanne the basis of painting was drawing, but the prerequisite for all work was subordination to the object, or the eye or pure looking: "All the painter’s intentions must be silent. He should silence all voices of prejudice. F...

For a Slow News Day: A few quotes by (or about) the Artist Paul Cézanne
La_Maison_du_pendu,_Auvers-sur-Oise,_par_Paul_Cézanne,_FWN_81.jpg Make others feel the same way about it. Without their realizing it! That's the meaning of art. Yes, what I'm aiming for is the logical development of what we see and feel when we observe nature; only then I'm concerned with the proce...

Re: Kwaku Walks Out Of A Religious Debate Being Viewed By Thousands
On the one hand, I agree with Montaigne (and I'm paraphrasing here): I don't care whether or not I win an argument just so long as the truth wins.
