“The time has passed for our sensations in painting to be whispered. We wish them in the future to sing and re-echo upon our canvases in deafening and triumphant flourishes” (F. T. Marinetti’s “Futurist Painting: Technical Manifesto,” 658). |
“Art is the human disposition of sensible or intelligible matter for an esthetic end.”
—James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, ch. 5. |
