A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
画家和绘画
Painters And Painting
I paint as if I were Rothschild.
我画画就像罗斯柴尔德。
No one can be a painter unless he cares for painting above all else.
没有人能成为画家,除非他把绘画放在首位。
For me, painting is a way to forget life. It is a cry in the night, a strangled laugh.
对我来说,绘画是一种忘记生活的方式。这是深夜里的一声哭泣,一声窒息的笑声。
Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.
每一幅有感情的画像都是艺术家的画像,而不是模特的画像。
The painter must enclose himself within his work; he must respond not with words, but with paintings.
画家必须全神贯注于他的作品;他必须用绘画而不是语言来回应。
Color possesses me. I don't have to pursue it. It will possess me always, I know it. That is the meaning of this happy hour: Color and I are one. I am a painter.
颜色拥有我。我不需要追求它。我知道,它将永远占据我。这就是这个欢乐时刻的意义:我和颜色是一体的。我是一个画家。
On the floor I am more at ease. I feel nearer, more part of the painting, since this way I can walk around it, work from the four sides and literally be in the painting.
在地板上我更自在。我感觉更近了,更接近这幅画的一部分,因为这样我就可以绕着它走,从四面八方作画,真正地融入到这幅画中。
