The basis of art is truth, both in matter and in mode.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
While I recognize the necessity for a basis of observed reality... true art lies in a reality that is felt.
Art is not merely an imitation of the reality of nature, but in truth a metaphysical supplement to the reality of nature, placed alongside thereof for its conquest.
Art has a double face, of expression and illusion, just like science has a double face: the reality of error and the phantom of truth.
The principles of true art is not to portray, but to evoke.
The core of my writing is not art but truth.
Art is not a study of positive reality, it is the seeking for ideal truth.
We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth, at least the truth that is given to us to understand.
Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.
Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth.
