"The human being; a fantastic and lovable creature, driven by despair. An insane creator who produces unvarying naivety, longing, and sorrow. His face; a bewildered act of life itself, declares an ignorance of the tree of knowledge. The savage egoism - a pathetic aspiration for allocation and possession. A longing, without reason, for all possibilities. Does anyone understand? An intellectual question-and-answer game between "surely" and "nevertheless". Actually, it all doesn't really matter. A rapture of all colors, of all things in the portrait. An insistence on obligation, sincerity, attentiveness. It expands, the tension rises: loud, garish, without obligation. You human, you lovable creature…"
Peter F. (1991)
" Ha! Lovable! I don't know anything more inhuman than man itself. Nothing else in nature can so consciously and deliberately turns against itself. I can only find humans lovable when they sit down across from me in front of my easel. There, I simply can't help it."
