Ad Reinhardt idézet

Ad Reinhardt, teljes nevén Adolph Dietrich Friedrich Reinhardt amerikai absztrakt expresszionista festő.

Az 1940-es évektől festette korai, absztrakt expresszionista képeit. Kompozíciói fokozatosan leegyszerűsödtek, kései, néhány színre redukált monokróm festményeivel a minimal art egyik létrehozója. Wikipedia

“An abstract painting will react to you if you react to it. You get from it what you bring to it. It will meet you half way but no further. It is alive if you are. It represents something and so do you. YOU, SIR, ARE A SPACE, TOO.”

Quote from the six page comic How to Look at Anvolved in some ideas. In painting – for me – no fooling-the-eye, no window-hole-in-the wall, no illusions, no representations, no associations, no distortions, no paint-caricaturing, no dream pictures of dripping, no delirium trimmings, no sadism or slashing, no therapy, no kicking-the-effigy, no clowning, no acrobatics, no heroics, no self-pity, no guilt.. ..no abstraction of everything, no nonsense, no involvements, no confusing painting with everything that is no painting.
