"L’émergence de l’art est un des signes qu’il existe encore des hommes capables de mettre en avant le sentiment dans le monde. L’art abstrait représente les acceptations particulières et les rejets des hommes qui vivent selon les conditions des temps modernes. C’est une réponse fondamentalement romantique à la vie moderne – idée rebelle, individualiste, non conventionnelle, sensible, irritable selon laquelle l’art est simplement un effort pour chacun d’embrasser l’univers, de s’unifier par l’union."
“The emergence of art is one sign that there are still men able to assert feeling in the world. Abstract art represents the particular acceptances and rejections of men living under the conditions of modern times. It is a fundamentally romantic response to modern life - rebellious, individualistic, unconventional, sensitive, irritable I think that one's art is just one's effort to wed oneself to the universe to unify oneself through union.”
Robert Motherwell, What Abstract Art Means to Me, 1951
