Music Is The Ultimate Teacher.

The Observer Must Learn To Look At The Picture As A Graphic Representation Of A Mood And Not As A Representation Of Objects.

Those [things] That We Encounter For The First Time Immediately Have A Spiritual Effect Upon Us. A Child, For Whom Every Object Is New, Experiences The World In This Way: It Sees Light, Is Attracted By It, Wants To Grasp It, Burns Its Finger In The Process, And Thus Learns Fear And Respect For The Flame.

In Your Works, You Have Realized What I, Albeit In Uncertain Form, Have So Greatly Longed For In Music. The Independent Progress Through Their Own Destinies, The Independent Life Of The Individual Voices In Your Compositions, Is Exactly What I Am Trying To Find In My Painting.

Each Color Lives By Its Mysterious Life.

With Cold Eyes And Indifferent Mind The Spectators Regard The Work. Connoissers Admire The "skill" (as One Admires A Tightrope Walker), Enjoy The "quality Of Painting" (as One Enjoys A Pasty). But Hungry Souls Go Hungry Away. The Vulgar Herd Stroll Through The Rooms And Pronounce The Pictures "nice" Or "splendid." Those Who Could Speak Have Said Nothing, Those Who Could Hear Have Heard Nothing.
