“In the dark ambiguities of time we need finesse, not geometry,
to find some stumbling way”.

               William Desmond
                   (Murdering Sleep, in The Tragic Discourse ed. R. Fotiade)

 


  It is often proposed that a non-figurative artist renounces the tangible and descends into himself,
preferring his inner fantasies to so-called external reality. However, it is a strict fidelity to the
so-called real, to life as it is lived, that enables such an artist to dispose of models, of subjects
demanding representation. Instead, the life
that has been lived, touched, tasted, heard, remembered…
passes
through the artist and appears, on the other side, as art.

every utopia has its secret corner  
  Un tableau conduit harmoniquement consiste en une série de tableaux superposés, chaque nouvelle couche donnant au rêve plus de réalitié et le faisant monter
d'un degré vers la perfection. Baudelaire (Salon de 1859)
