Quotations regarding 'Artist'

Choose a letter: 
An artist has every right - one may even say a duty - to exhibit his productions as prominently as he can.
Jacques Barzun, American Educator (1907-  )
I paint German artists whom I admire. I paint their pictures, their work as painters, and their portraits too. But oddly enough, each of these portraits ends up as a picture of a woman with blonde hair. I myself have never been able to work out why this happens.
Georg Baselitz, German Artist (1938-  )
The artist is not responsible to any one. His social role is asocial... his only responsibility consists in an attitude to the work he does.
Georg Baselitz, German Artist (1938-  )
Works of art produced in the contemporary world are a further expression of that. But I don't think there is an active, ongoing nihilist self-consciousness in the artist.
Leonard Baskin, American Artist
I think there is an element of nihilism about, but I don't think most artists feel their work is meaningless.
Leonard Baskin, American Artist
I am not a black artist, I am an artist.
Jean-Michel Basquiat, American Artist (1960-1988)
Wynton and Christopher were really great experiences for me because they are both very gifted artists.
Kathleen Battle, American Actress (1948-  )
In order for the artist to have a world to express he must first be situated in this world, oppressed or oppressing, resigned or rebellious, a man among men.
Charles Baudelaire, French Poet (1821-1867)
The study of beauty is a duel in which the artist cries with terror before being defeated.
Charles Baudelaire, French Poet (1821-1867)
An artist is an artist only because of his exquisite sense of beauty, a sense which shows him intoxicating pleasures, but which at the same time implies and contains an equally exquisite sense of all deformities and all disproportion.
Charles Baudelaire, French Poet (1821-1867)
But I found that being an artist and doing accurate work is very difficult.
Alan Bean, American Astronaut (1932-  )
No one should drive a hard bargain with an artist.
Beck, American Musician (1970-  )
I'm the artist formally known as Beck. I have a genius wig. When I put that wig on, then the true genius emerges. I don't have enough hair to be a genius. I think you have to have hair going everywhere.
Beck, American Musician (1970-  )
To find a form that accommodates the mess, that is the task of the artist now.
Samuel Beckett, Irish Playwright (1906-1989)
Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.
Henry Ward Beecher, American Clergyman (1813-1887)
I have enjoyed all the artists I've worked with.
Adrian Belew, American Musician (1949-  )
I wear a lot of different hats - from writer to producer and artist. We all do 5 or 6 jobs, everything from creating our own graphic design to actually recording and the whole bit.
William Bell, -
Any artist should be grateful for a naive grace which puts him beyond the need to reason elaborately.
Saul Bellow, American Novelist (1914-2005)
The true gourmet, like the true artist, is one of the unhappiest creatures existent. His trouble comes from so seldom finding what he constantly seeks: perfection.
Ludwig Bemelmans, Austrian Author (1898-1962)
The man of science, the artist, the philosopher are attached to their nations as much as the day-laborer and the merchant.
Julien Benda, French Philosopher (1867-1956)
