Kunst / Art Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Kunst / Art:

In comics, you have to imagine what happens. I really loved it; I loved collecting. I loved following the adventures and figuring out what was going to happen next. I was a huge X-Men fan; I was a huge Spider-Man fan, and, to large degree, I remain one. It's literature for me; it's art. Ta-Nehisi Coates

Art is the right hand of Nature. The latter has only given us being, the former has made us men.

Friedrich Schiller

I am interested in art as a means of living a life; not as a means of making a living.

The drama may be called that part of theatrical art which lends itself most readily to intellectual discussion: what is left is theater.

Robertson Davies

It's interesting that the treatment of historical events by art precedes the civilisation of people through democracy.

Elfriede Jelinek

I believe entertainment can aspire to be art, and can become art, but if you set out to make art you're an idiot.

Steve Martin

Your talent is your art. It is not to be taken for granted.

Paula Abdul

I had art as a major, along with English, French and History. I had dance, modern dance. In English I was allowed to write my own poetry, which I eventually got published.

Sally Kirkland

No nude, however abstract, should fail to arouse in the spectator some vestige of erotic feeling, even if it be only the faintest shadow - and if it does not do so it is bad art and false morals.

Kenneth Clark

All works of art are commissioned in the sense that no artist can create one by a simple act of will but must wait until what he believes to be a good idea for a work comes to him.

W. H. Auden

Art is a sense of magic.

I wanted to write stories for myself. At first it was purely an aesthetic thing about craft. I just wanted to become good at the art of something. And writing was very private.

It's always been performance art, but now it's on a different level.

Mark Roberts

All art is a struggle to be, in a particular sort of way, virtuous.

Iris Murdoch

That is why we profess a spiritual kinship with primitive and archaic art.

Mark Rothko

All of my art is suitcase-sized. I always paint in mediums that dry pretty quickly because I've got to throw them in my suitcase and go. And I have so much because of that, because it's what I've always done to pass the time, and I like it.

Alison Mosshart

Basically, I viewed any work of art as an imposition of another person's taste, and saw the individual making this imposition as a kind of dictator.

Henry Flynt

My vision for G.O.O.D. Music is just carrying on with the tradition of putting out high-quality music, high-quality art. G.O.O.D. Music is entrenched in the culture of hip-hop. It's entrenched in the culture, period.

Pusha T

Cubism is still the most important art movement for the same reason that John D. is still the most important Rockefeller.
