Pollock Was Terrific. I Think

I Want To Emphasize The Fact That We All Have The Same Experience And The Same Concern, But The Artist Must Know Exactly What The Experience Is. He Must Pursue The Truth Relentlessly. Once He Sees This Fact His Feet Are On The Path. If You Want To Know The Truth You Will Know It. The Manipulation Of Materials In An Artwork Is A Result Of This State Of Mind. The Artist Works By Awareness Of His Own State Of Mind.

It's Not About Facts, It's About Feelings. It's About Remembering Feelings And Happiness. A Definition Of Art Is That It Makes Concrete Our Most Subtle Emotions. I Think The Highest Form Of Art Is Music. It's The Most Abstract Of All Art Expression.

My Paintings Are Certainly Nonobjective. They're Just Horizontal Lines. There's Not Any Hint Of Nature. And Still Everybody Responds, I Think.

Beauty And Happiness And Life Are All The Same And They Are Pervasive, Unattached And Abstract And They Are Our Only Concern. They Are Immeasurable, Completely Lacking In Substance. They Are Perfect And Sublime. This Is The Subject Matter Of Art.

That Which Takes Us By Surprise-moments Of Happiness-that Is Inspiration.
