Famous quotes containing the word paintings:

    “the great orange bed where we lie
    like two frozen paintings in a field of poppies.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “It is not your paintings I like, it is your painting.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
    —Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
