'I organise the opposition of contrasting values, lines and curves. I oppose curves to straight lines, flat surfaces to moulded forms, pure local colours to nuances of grey. These initial plastic forms are either superimposed on objective elements or not, it makes no difference to me. There is only a question of variety.'
(F. Léger, in 1923, quoted in E.F. Fry, ed., Functions of Painting, London, 1973, p. 25.)
