"In these assemblages there appear co-mingled sites and scenes which are the constituent parts of a moment and act of looking. Of looking with the mind.... if not the immediate looking with the eyes. One must not confuse what the eyes apprehend with what happens when the mind takes it in... The mind totalizes; it recapitulates all the fields; it makes them dance together. It stirs them together, it exchanges them, in it everything joins in movement." (Dubuffet quoted in A. Franzke, Dubuffet, New York, 1981, p. 247).
