Lot Essay

'What can I say about my works that they don't say? When I am asked about what I think when I look at a painting, I can only answer that I don't think at all; I look at it and can only take in the beauty, and I don't want to see it in relation to anything else. Only what I see, simply because it has its own validity.' - Imi Knoebel
