Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.
    Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)

    “Why don’t you finally publish your works?” My friend, in bad weather one had better stay home.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
