edit data

"Philip Guston (June 27, 1913 – June 7, 1980) was a painter and printmaker in the New York School, which included many of the abstract expressionists, such as Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning. In the late 1960s Guston helped to lead a transition from abstract expressionism to neo-expressionism in painting, abandoning the so-called "pure abstraction" of abstract expressionism in favor of more cartoonish renderings of various personal symbols and objects." - wikipedia ...more

Quotes by Philip Guston (?)

“I think a painter has two choices: he paints the world or himself.”
― Philip Guston, I Paint What I Want to See

“Oh, how I hate the calculation, the reasoning of the eye and mind. I hate the composing — the designing of spaces — to make things fit! What, after all, does it satisfy? It robs and steals from the image that the spirit so desperately desires.”
― Philip Guston, I Paint What I Want to See

“The thing you did then at that moment, that was it. So that the painting or the drawing was in fact evidence, you might say, or a document or a record really, [...] of the creative moment.”
― Philip Guston, I Paint What I Want to See
