Francis Picabia, to provoke an unexpected discovery |

Paul Klee, one eye |
| Paul Klee (1879-1940) Swiss-born painter and graphic artist
Statements
"Color possesses me... forever, I know. Color and I are one. I am a painter."
"A line is a dot that goes for a walk."
"I paint… so that I may not cry." |
Man Ray, ambivalence of the senses |
| Man Ray (1890-1976) American artist, painter, object maker, sculptor, filmmaker, and photographer
Statements
"The streets are full of admirable craftsmen, but so few practical dreamers."
"It has never been my object to record my dreams, just the determination to realize them." |
Man Ray, playing with the conventions of signs |
| The model on the photograph is Kiki, 'Queen of Montparnasse'. As an artist, model, cabaret singer, and personality, Kiki was the symbol of bohemian and creative Paris during 'les années folles'. |
Man Ray, traces of sensory energy |
| Statements
"I paint what I cannot photograph, and I photograph what I cannot paint."
"Of course, there will always be those who look only at technique, who ask 'how', while others of a more curious nature will ask 'why'. Personally, I have always preferred inspiration to information." |
René Magritte, and the impossible |
| René Magritte (1898-1967) Belgian Surrealist painter
Statements
"Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see."
"Only thought can resemble. It resembles by being what it sees, hears, or knows; it becomes what the world offers it." |
René Magritte, the freedom of thought |
| Statements"Art evokes the mystery without which the world would not exist."
"If the dream is a translation of waking life, waking life is also a translation of the dream." |
Meret Oppenheim, report from the unconscious |
| Meret Oppenheim (1913-1985) German-Swiss painter and sculptor
Statements
"For women, the implications are that they have to live their own female life as well as the female life that men project on them. Thus, they are woman two times. That's too much."
"Freedom is something you take, you never get it for free!"
"Imagination is the landscape in which the artist goes for a walk." |
