Victor Vasarely

“To be a painter is to have been born a painter. The painter is a medium. I don't choose, I am chosen.”

“The image is not in my hand, it is in my mind.”

“Pure form and pure color can speak to the soul.”

“Art is the plastic expression of the man, of the society, of the time. It is a language, a mode of communication.”

“Painting is a language. And as in a language, there are the words, the syntax, the grammar.”

“The art of tomorrow will be a collective treasure or it will not be art at all.”

“In my geometric art, I try to express a certain moral and intellectual discipline, a will to create a world of clarity and beauty.”

“Every true artist has been inspired more by the internal world of his mind than by the external world of reality.”

“The two creative expressions of the human being are art and science. In the prehistoric cave, they were one.”
