Quotes About Artist

I'm not particularly good at page layouts. I make an effort to stay out of the way of the artist. What I'll try to express instead is, 'What we're going for here on this page is the idea of the containment of these women's bodies. So I want them framed as though they're bursting out of the panel borders.'

Instead of chasing the idea of truth, what we should be doing is embracing the medium of drawing and using it for a purpose that fulfils our needs as an artist or designer.
~ Peter Stanyer
I think he is the ornament of society! Oh, there is not just one role for the artist in society. He has many roles and he has a different role as society changes, and in different societies . . . He can be a seer at times, and in the eighteenth century he was the satirist, the artist stepping back and holding up the mirror to society. Moreover, I don't think the same kind of person is necessarily an artist or a poet in one century as another.

There is no such thing as motivation in my world. I am not motivated to do what I do. As an artist, I am driven, I am compelled, I am thrust forward by a force so rooted inside me, so convincing, that it seems futile to try to explain it. Although it has a name: passion.
~ Philippe Petit
Art, on the other hand, must be first of all "forceful." The artist, in dealing with ethical revaluations (as he naturally would, since the characteristics of the century would be as fully represented in him as in a scientist or an inventor) had to make those conflicts explicit which the scientist could leave implicit.
~ Phillip Lopate
Plus l'artiste s'affirme comme tel en affirmant son autonomie, plus il constitue le « bourgeois », dans lequel on englobe, avec Flaubert, « le bourgeois en blouse et le bourgeois en redingote », comme « béotien » ou « philistin », inapte à aimer l'œuvre d'art, à se l'approprier réellement, c'est-à-dire symboliquement.

producteur de la valeur de l'œuvre d'art n'est pas l'artiste mais le champ de production en tant qu'univers de croyance qui produit la valeur de l'œuvre d'art comme fétiche en produisant la croyance dans le pouvoir créateur de l'artiste.
~ Pierre Bourdieu
