More from Henri Matisse
"The role of the artist is to ask questions, not to answer them."
"I do not claim to teach; I only want my exhibition not to suggest false interpretations to those who have their own way to make."
"I want to create an art that is pure and serene, without any disturbing or troubling subject matter."
"All the artists who began by being hungry and cold have made good painting. Everybody, Picasso, Magritte, Rouault and myself, all began like that. The facts signify something."
"A thimbleful of red is redder than a bucketful."
