[1] The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web. That is why we must not discriminate between things. Where things are concerned there are no class distinctions. Pablo Picasso,
1935
[2] We Catalans believe
you must always plant your feet firmly on the ground if you want to be
able to jump up into the air. The fact that I come down to earth from time
to time makes it possible to jump all the higher.
Joan
Miro, Sweeney, 1948
[3] Nature is hidden in
infinity and manysidedness and does not reveal itself in things; in its
many manifestations it has neither tongue nor form, it is infinite and
boundless. The miracle of nature is that it all is contained in a small
seed, and yet this “all” cannot be embraced. Man, holding a seed, holds
the universe and yet cannot examine it, regardless of all the obviousness
of the latter’s origin and of “scientific foundations”. One must understand
this small seed in order to also reveal the whole universe. Kasimir
Malevich, God is not Cast Down, section seven
