Artist’s Statement
Gustave Courbet |
|
Definition
| “To be able to translate the customs, ideas, and appearances of my time as I see them – in a word, to create a living art – that has been my aim...The art of painting can consist only in the representations of objects visible and tangible to the painter…An abstract object, invisible or nonexistent, does not belong to the domain of painting…Show me an angel and I’ll paint one.” |

| Vincent Van Gogh statement |

Definition
| “In my picture of the Night Café I have tried to express the idea that the café is a place where one can ruin oneself, run mad, or commit a crime. I have tried to express the terrible passions of humanity by means of red and green…Everywhere there is a clash and contrast of the most alien reds and greens…So I have tried to express, as it were, the powers of darkness in a low wine-shop, and all this in an atmosphere like a devil’s furnace of pale sulfur…It is color not locally true from the point of view of the stereoscopic realist, but color to suggest the emotion of an ardent temperament.” |
