Lessons on Art--Calder

Alexander Calder
Pay attention to these two quotes by Alexander Calder. They mean everything.
Remember you want life in your work.

"The sense of motion in painting and sculpture has long been considered as one of the primary elements of the composition."
and
"When an artist explains what he is doing he usually has to do one of two things: either scrap what he has explained, or make his subsequent work fit in with the explanation."

Too much talk about the art work leads to too much talk. Art needs to be viewed. benda
