Milos Vujasinovic - From the Abstraction category:
Abstract paintings with a few brush touches too many are just like the servings of mock orange tea with added sugar. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Advice category:
My friend Stojan Pacov gave me a friendly advice: Art is not what you paint; art is how you paint it. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Appreciation category:
Art appreciation - like character - is a highly personal thing. A posteriori, art collectors are often behaving like children. In that sense, there are two kinds of collectors, one that is listening and taking the Fifth, and the other is trying to demonstrate that his father is making more money, that his mother is more attractive, and that his pet dog will bite your arm if you have anything against it. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Art category:
Art is a matter of taste. Art can be light, bitter, sweet and heavy, likeable and unlikable. However, it is very important if art is interesting or not, if it was calculated well in advance or it is a product of pure sensation. In the end, it is also significant whether art is what we call it. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Artists category:
Artists are like lit candles; some burn out fast, some are put out promptly, and the rest smolder. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Books category:
I have always had more books on art than room to display them all. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Chaos category:
While creating, I sometimes have a small transistor radio, CNN News and PC music playing all at the same time. This gives me an opportunity to shut off and open the 4th track in my mind. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Choices category:
Going painting is like swimming; you have to choose the direction of your path and how far you will go. If your choice is to connect the two coasts, you have to master enough courage and power because it is too late returning at the halfway mark. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Collectors category:
Art collectors should not throw envelopes whereout they received sellers' communication regarding their properties. It is a bigtime no-no in my book and you do not want to ask why. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Collectors category:
-on Belgrade, Serbia... Cowards and illiterates buy 'the names only'; the brave ones select the best pieces from both known and unknown painters correcting the art history, putting and assorting the values back in their places. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Commerce category:
Auction goods stay a bargain as at least one serious bidder always misses out. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Depression category:
The more melancholic I get, the deeper art I can feel. Although I like what I sense, I am afraid of my destiny. Next time I look at Van Gogh or Gerstl, I do not want to ask myself if I still want to live. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Destiny category:
The destiny of any painter depends on the courage of one collector, critic or art historian. However, the number of cowards leads, 10,000 to one. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Discovery category:
Craft cannot be learned entirely; one never learns everything - there are things that are not yet discovered. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Education category:
Professor fighting screaming students, exploding crackers and imminent chaos were regular events at my elementary art classes in Serbia. Were it not for the past and present American collectors and my time spent in USA, I would have been thinking art is the agony of hopeless grief, and artists, a bunch of crazy ninnies. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Emotion category:
I got 19th century's spirit. Falling back on that feeling leads my mind and formulates the outcome of what I am going to experience before the work. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Envy category:
I appreciate my paintings to the point that I do not envy anyone. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Fame category:
Fame goes only to those to whom it was destined. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Freedom category:
I heard 'and what does this represent to you?' and I said, 'Listen, that is the artistic freedom.' (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Immortality category:
Those who look at art relay their visions to the following generations as those images remain into the collective psyche. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Invention category:
My knowledge is based on the sensation. That's what makes me different; that is the secret of my inventiveness. Okay? (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Life category:
Life, like everything else, could be art, but to know whether it is an art, one must invest time to develop his or her sensibilities, and it means to enjoy looking around weighing various peers, though best are those from the past. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Listening category:
Sometimes I hear things, like music, as the works are talking to me. Keep on dreaming you old tripper, I say to myself often. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Love category:
If I had love and money I would not go anywhere from Belgrade. I would hang
around, have a next burger with fries and beer, relax and just paint. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Materials category:
Today, art weighs less than its material structure. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Money category:
Money that the buyer pays to an artist is a form of guarantee that the work of art will not, at least for some time, fall to the wrong hands. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Movement category:
The rhythm of movement, similar to the movement of huge oncoming ocean waves, leads to an impression of unchangeable infinity of the natural cycle... (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Mysteries category:
Our beings are full of coincidence and mystery, and often times we do not have a choice. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Originality category:
Original art is the World's Most Powerful Currency. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Painting category:
As far as I am concerned, projects, installations, conceptualizations, video art and showies alike have defeated the true sense and meaning of painting. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Perfection category:
My paintings are both a proof and a reminder that nothing in this world has ever been perfect or perfect enough. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Recognition category:
If one side of art is making, the second side is networking. I would have never liked some artists if I have not heard, or read, or seen their works. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Responsibility category:
-in Serbia, on part of the anonymous artists... In my lifetime of collecting art, I have come across some 'cuckoo artists' who will deny the work is theirs. I coined the term cuckoo artists, since their paintings, it appears, are laid out through different collections like cuckoo eggs. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Rhythm category:
A spiritual poker of a lyrist had shaped a poetic ardor emerging hereby in a rhythmic beating... (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Senses category:
Occasionally, I am looking at pieces and equally thinking of old wine, fried duck, celery soup with mushrooms, dip-in sauce, bourbon and coffee. And you know, when it comes to eating a nice meal, just as bullterriers do, I never give up. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Simplicity category:
At first glance, simplicity can be deceiving. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Sincerity category:
There is nothing more sincere than one coat of paint. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Standards category:
The difference between art and good art is that the latter can be seen, felt and heard. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Talent category:
Talent cannot be given, it can only be generated. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Taste category:
What keeps abstract art afloat may still be the taste. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Timeliness category:
Were I born 120 years ago – Van Gogh would have stayed alive, Whistler would not have written his Fine Art of Making Enemies, and I would have learned how to paint. Most likely, I'd have buddied up with Gauguin on his trips. (Milos Vujasinovic)
Milos Vujasinovic - From the Trust category:
Better believe it, without trust, there is not any fine art. (Milos Vujasinovic)
