The worst state of affairs is when science begins to concern itself with art. – Paul Klee
Beauty is as relative as light and dark. Thus, there exists no beautiful woman, none at all, because you are never certain that a still far more beautiful woman will not appear and completely shame the supposed beauty of the first. – Paul Klee
When looking at any significant work of art, remember that a more significant one probably has had to be sacrificed. – Paul Klee
To emphasize only the beautiful seems to me to be like a mathematical system that only concerns itself with positive numbers. – Paul Klee
The giant white cube is now impeding rather than enhancing the rhythms of art. It preprograms a viewers journey, shifts the emphasis from process to product, and lacks individuality and openness. Its not that art should be seen only in rutty bombed-out environments, but it should seem alive. – Jerry Saltz
