Painting does what we cannot do - it brings a three-dimensional world into a two-dimensional plane.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We're quite into graphics that are simultaneously two- and three-dimensional. But I can't really elaborate any further because it's not something - we haven't really perfected it.
Painting will have to deal more fully and less obliquely with life and nature's phenomena before it can again become great.
Painting is a lie. It's the most magic of all media, the most transcendent. It makes space where there is no space.
Every work of art belongs to his time. I would not paint again the Mona Lisa in the third dimension.
Painting is not for me either decorative amusement, or the plastic invention of felt reality; it must be every time: invention, discovery, revelation.
But, after all, the aim of art is to create space - space that is not compromised by decoration or illustration, space within which the subjects of painting can live.
Painting is an illusion, a piece of magic, so what you see is not what you see.
What is the use of good painting? We want a spell cast upon the optical part of our existence! We seldom really see the world, but when we do, we become as still as a picture.
Painting, for me, is a dynamic balance and wholeness of life; it is mysterious and transcending, yet solid and real.
Painting is an essentially concrete art and can only consist of the representation of real and existing things.
