the viewer
| Introduction | "the viewer is persuaded by his senses that he occupies the center of the world around him - a world he changes at will as he moves through it" rudolph arnheim art theorist 1988 About Art 'the only thing that is not art is inattention.' marcel duchamp 'we don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.' anaïs nin ‘i think all my works, my actions, have no meaning outside what they are. so if you think it's significant, then it's significant.’ richard long 'in the end, the creative act is not performed by the artist at all: the spectator brings art to life and thus fulfills the work on the spot.' detroit mona - the jane show 'I think both art and life are a matter of life and death.' walter de maria 'art is art. everything else is everything else.' ad reinhardt 'you can only express in words what words are capable of expressing, what language can communicate. painting has nothing to do with that.' gerhard richter |
