The emergence of abstract art is a sign that there are still men of feeling in the world ...From their perspective, it is the social world that tends to appear irrational and absurd...Nothing as drastic as abstract art could have come into existence save as the consequence of a most profound, relentless, unquenchable need. The need is for felt experience - intense, immediate, direct, subtle, unified, warm, vivid, rhythmic. If a painting does not make a human contact, it is nothing. But the audience is also responsible. Through pictures our passions touch. Pictures are vehicles of passion, of all kinds and orders, not pretty luxuries like sports cars. In our society, the capacity to give and receive passion is limited. For this reason, the act of painting is deep human necessity, not the production of a hand-made commodity.
-Robert Motherwall / excerpted from Robert Motherwell, New York : Museum of Modern Art, 1965, pp 45, 50.
