Site aléatoire avec un personnage

“Personally I am not interested in what is exceptional and this extends to all domains. I feed on the banal. The more banal a thing may be, the better it suits me. Luckily I do not consider myself exceptional in any way. In my paintings, I wish to recover the vision of an average and ordinary man, and, it is without using techniques beyond the grasp of an ordinary man… that I have tried to constitute great celebrations...
I am speaking of celebrations of the mind; please may it be understood: celebrations of humors and deliriums. Art addresses itself to the mind, not to the eyes. Too many people think that art addresses itself to the eyes. That is to make of it poor use. ” (Jean Dubuffet, Prospectus et tous écrits suivants, compiled and edited by Hubert Damisch, Editions Gallimard, Paris, 1967, 2 Volumes, vol. II, p. 62).
