Famous quotes containing the word painting:

    “The peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.”
    —Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)

    “For the bright side of the painting I had a limited sympathy. My visions were of shipwreck and famine; of death or captivity among barbarian hordes; of a lifetime dragged out in sorrow and tears, upon some gray and desolate rock, in an ocean unapproachable and unknown.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “Now at least we know everything that painting isn’t.”
    —Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
