Stuart Davis (December 7, 1892 – June 24, 1964), was an early American modernist painter.
He was well known for his jazz-influenced, proto pop art paintings of the 1940s and 1950s, bold, brash, and colorful, as well as his ashcan pictures in the early years of the 20th century.
Stuart Davis quotations
Travel, form, space, and art
An artist who has traveled on a steam train, driven an automobile, or flown in an airplane doesn't feel the same way about form and space as one who has not.
Color makes space
Always remember that in a painting color has a position, and a place, and it makes space.
Practical hazards
In a painting, space doesn't involve practical hazards. You can't break your neck in a painting.
