Artists on Art: Beyond the Tangible

 

“Abstraction allows man to see with his mind what he cannot see physically with his eyes... Abstract art enables the artist to perceive beyond the tangible, to extract the infinite out of the finite. It is the emancipation of the mind. It is an exploration into unknown areas.”

― Arshile Gorky
