Marcel Duchamp
“I have forced myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste.”
Marcel Duchamp

Pablo Picasso
“Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction”
Pablo Picasso

Jean Cocteau
“Art is a marriage of the conscious and the unconscious.”
Jean Cocteau

Carolyn Kizer
“Poems, to me, do not come from ideas, they come from a series of images that you tuck away in the back of your brain. Little photographic snapshots. Then you get the major vision of the poem, which is like a giant magnet to which all these disparate little impressions fly and adhere, and there is the poem!”
Carolyn Kizer

James Baldwin
“The artistic image is not intended to represent the thing itself, but, rather, the reality of the force the thing contains.”
James Baldwin, Nobody Knows My Name
