George Kubler: Frasi in inglese

“The notion of style has long been the art historian's principal mode of classifying works of art. By style he selects and shapes the history of art.”

George Kubler summarizing the view of Meyer Schapiro (with whom he disagrees), quoted by Alpers in Lang, Berel (ed.), The Concept of Style, 1987, Ithaca: Cornell University Press, ISBN 0801494397

“The seventeenth-century academic separation between fine and useful arts first fell out of fashion nearly a century ago.”

George Kubler (1961), cited in: Guido Guerzoni (2011). Apollo and Vulcan: The Art Markets in Italy, 1400-1700. p. 27

“However useful it is for pedagogical purposes, the biological metaphor of style as a sequence of life-stages was historically misleading, for it bestowed upon the flux of events the shapes and behavior of organisms.”

Origine: The Shape of Time, 1982, p. 8 as cited in: Pamela M. Lee, " " Ultramoderne": Or, How George Kubler Stole the Time in Sixties Art. http://xenopraxis.net/readings/lee_ultramoderne.pdf" Grey Room (2001): 55.
