Amedeo Modigliani

Art is a mirror of the soul.

I want to create something new, something unique.

The artist must be a poet.

I am a wanderer.

My art is a song without words.

I paint the silence.

Art is a bridge between worlds.

I want my art to be a revelation.

The human spirit is my muse.

I am a seeker of light.

My art is a testament to the power of the human soul.

What I am searching for is neither the real nor the unreal, but the unconscious.

Despite all my convictions as to the necessity of art, I have a secret scorn for it. It is a bit of a fraud, this art.

One must be the painter, never the picture.

Every man must have his own legend.

I work in the dark. I don't know what I'm doing sometimes.

You are not a woman. You're a landscape. I, the traveler, pass through.

Art is a lie that enables us to realize the truth.

I suffer from a noble malady: the desire to create.

The human face is the organic mirror of the human soul.
