"Painting is born like a spontaneous need and thrives on the appetite for colour. There is no sculpture if you first don't go through this spiritual state" (Marini quoted in G. di San Lazzaro, ed., Homage to Marino Marini, New York, 1975, p. 6).
Marini is best-known as a sculptor, yet color and painting were intrinsic elements in his artistic practice. Painting allowed him to explore the forms of his sculptures and also to explore color harmonies and dissonances. "Painting, for me, depends on color, which takes me further and further away from real form," he explained. "The emotion that colors awake in me, that is to say the contrast of one color with another, or their relationship, stimulates my imagination much more than does the materialization of the human figure if I have to rely on pictorial means alone" (Marini quoted in ibid.).
