Fernand Leger Quotes:
“What does that represent? There was never any question in plastic art, in poetry, in music, of representing anything. It is a matter of making something beautiful, moving, or dramatic – this is by no means the same thing”
“Enormous enlargements of an object or a fragment give it a personality it never had before, and in this way, it can become a vehicle of entirely new lyric and plastic power”
“Man needs colour to live; it’s just as necessary an element as fire and water”
“This truth must be recognized as a dogma and assume the validity of an axiom in the general understanding of painting”
“The realistic value of a work is completely independent of its properties in terms of content”
