Famous quotes containing the words painting and, painting and/or photography:

    “The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.”
    —Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)

    “One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite—that that particular peach is but a detail.”
    —Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)

    “Too many photographers try too hard. They try to lift photography into the realm of Art, because they have an inferiority complex about their Craft. You and I would see more interesting photography if they would stop worrying, and instead, apply horse-sense to the problem of recording the look and feel of their own era.”
    —Jessie Tarbox Beals (1870–1942)
