I can say that for me Beauty is something that makes me dream, but it’s something much more intense than a dream. It’s an ideal, a mirage, an enigma.

Igor Mitoraj

Art is a permanent revolution.

Fernando Botero

We build upon that which art history has placed in our hands.

Manolo Valdés

I want to cover the world with LOVE. I'd like to cover the world with HOPE.

Robert Indiana

Art should be interpreted by the one that sees it. It is an intimate experience; I believe it is for your eyes only.

Julio Larraz

Sculpture is life, which becomes eternal

Pablo Atchugarry

I paint for myself, because I must. It’s like breathing. If I was forbidden to paint, I would be left without air.

Zoran Music

To me, life without art is a definite impossibility.

Mikhail Baryshnikov

The beauty of abstraction is its freedom, its balance, its serenity, its harmony.

Sophia Vari

My life is one of a poet, the circumstances that have tormented me are those of a person in love. I have defended myself from life like a hero.

Giuseppe Cesetti

Inside and outside: nature surrounds us; there's no way to avoid it!

Enzo Fiore

To live near art is a beautiful thing; the farther away you move from it, fewer happy days you will have.

Mario Arlati

Never rest on my laurels.

Carla Tolomeo

Photography is a Conversation without words

Giacomo Braglia

Art is a shammy soul

Francesco Salvi

Art is curiosity, seeing the world through different eyes. Art is the crazy ones' Heaven

Paolo Vegas

Thinking and Being belong to each other in providing us with the sense of Beauty

Andrea Valleri

The work of art is a scream of freedom.

Christo

I didn't want to be like everybody else. Art was my religion.

Julian Schnabel

I just think that if you use materials that have an ability to communicate directly, you open up a channel and you can work through that. So you are using the power of materials.

Marc Quinn

Sorrow generates beauty and, in the stone first split and then put together again, it is possible to build again harmony, fruit of the creative act

Park Eun Sun

Art can imitate reality, but is more often a product of it; this paradoxically, appears truer in photography.

Giovanni Ricci Novara

The artist needs erections, not inspiration…

Giuseppe Veneziano

Life was born in the seas, and so was music, painting, sculpture…the art of my photographs says more than words

Alberto Luca Recchi

I want to allow the viewer to observe what is outside the artwork

Enrico Ghinato

The challenge is precisely to make the elements linked to the pictorial tradition coexist with the changing technology

Fabrizio Plessi

The real theme of my work is light, the subject interests me, I dissect it an examine all its parts but it’s also a pretext to use light, to make paintings
