Painting constantly appeared to me as the one and only possible achievement.
From Max Beckmann
I believe the reason I love painting so much is that it forces one to be objective.
I think only of objects: of a leg or an arm, of the wonderful sense of foreshortening, breaking through the plane, of the division of space, of the combination of straight lines in relation to curved ones.
I passed blindly many things which belong to real and political life.
What are you? What am I? Those are the questions that constantly persecute and torment me and perhaps also play some part in my art.
What I want to show in my work is the idea which hides itself behind so-called reality.
One of my problems is to find the self.
Space, and space again, is the infinite deity which surrounds us and in which we are ourselves contained.
I believe that the reason why I love painting so much is that it forces one to be objective. There is nothing I hate more than sentimentality.
