It seems to me, that the modern painter cannot
express his age, the airplane, the atom bomb, the
radio, in the old forms of the Renaissance or of
any other past culture. Each age finds its own
technique.

19When I am in my painting, I'm not aware of what
I'm doing. It's only after a sort of "get

about. I have no fears about making changes,
destroying the image, etc., because the painting
has a life of its own
