Juan Gris Frasi e Citazioni

“Comincio con l'organizzare il mio quadro, poi qualifico gli oggetti. Si tratta della creazione di nuovi oggetti che non possono paragonarsi ad alcun oggetto della realtà.

Il mio violino, essendo una creazione, non deve più temere il confronto.”

“No work which is destined to become a classic can look like the classics which have preceded it. In art, as in biology, there is heredity but no identity with the ascendants. Painters inherit characteristics acquired by their forerunners; that is why no important work of art can belong to any period but its own, to the very moment of its creation. It is necessarily dated by its own appearance. The conscious will of the painter cannot intervene.”
