Abstraction
Art is a spiritual function of man which aims at freeing him from life’s chaos.
(Kurt Schwitters)
The urge to abstraction is the outcome of a great inner unrest inspired in man by the phenomena of the outside world; in a religious respect it corresponds to a strongly transcendental tinge to all notions.
(Wilhelm Worringer)
Colour is the keyboard. The eye is the hammer. The soul is the piano, with its many strings. The artist is the hand that purposefully sets the soul vibrating by means of this or that key.
(Wassily Kandinsky)
I spread out darkness in search of light.
(Jannis Spyropoulos)
