"Alles,
was du dir vorstellen kannst, ist real."
Pablo Picasso
 Kunst zu schaffen
braucht Zeit, ob nun Bücher geschrieben, Bilder
gemalt oder Plastiken
erstellt werden – alles braucht seine Zeit.
Dies wird immer wieder vergessen. Insbesondere von einer Welt, welche das Individuum selten ruhen lässt und stets von ihm unendliche Kontributionen erwartet.
Stille ist nicht Tod. Stille ist durchatmen, Kraft schöpfen – Stille ist Inspiration.
"Anybody
can look at a pretty girl and see a pretty girl. An artist can look at a pretty
girl and see the old woman she will become. A better artist can look at an old
woman and see the pretty girl that she used to be. But a great artist – a
master – and that is what Auguste Rodin was – can look at an old woman, protray her
exactly as she is... and force the viewer to see the pretty girl she used to
be... and more than that, he can make anyone with the sensitivity of an
armadillo, or even you, see that this lovely young girl is still alive, not old
and ugly at all, but simply prisoned inside her ruined body. He can make you
feel the quiet, endless tragedy that there was never a girl born who ever grew
older than eighteen in her heart... no matter what the merciless hours have done
to her. Look at her, Ben. Growing old doesn't matter to you and me; we were
never meant to be admired – but it does to them."
Robert Heinlein
