An artist cannot speak about his art any more than a plant can discuss horticulture.

Asking an artist to talk about his work is like asking a plant to discuss horticulture.

Whatever is valuable in painting is precisely what one is incapable of talking about.

One cannot create an art that speaks to me when one has nothing to say.

An artist can't produce great art unless he has a philosophy.He can't say something unlee he has something to say.

But of works of art little can be said.

A painter should never speak because words are not the means at his command. Words cannot express visually dimension at a glance they can only establish their own relationship in time. However, it is possible for a painter, at certain moments of his development to formulate some of the problems he is facing in the growth of his work. A painting cannot be explained. Words can only stimulate the act of looking.
A visual problem is never put a priori as a mathematical problem but is born in the process of painting and evolves in a state of unawareness of the painter.

You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think.

People say they want your art, but they don’t want the artist to express themselves in truth.

There is nothing at all that can be talked about adequately, and the whole art of poetry is to say what can't be said.

I do think that art that doesn't communicate is useless.

"Sometimes it is better not to talk about art by using the word "art". If we just act with awareness and integrity, our art will flower, and we don't have to talk about it at all."

..people always talk about painting, because basically painting does not talk.

Painting can never show her nose in company with architecture without being snubbed.
