...cold vertebrae, crystalline antennae and petrified blood vessels, heaped like Martian cairns in a dim wasteland. Tanguy lays no claim to imagination, boasts of having no purpose. Says he: "Seeking is the important thing, not painting. You may think painting is to show something new, but no: Picasso and Dali do that, and they are monkeys. I don't want to show anything, or to teach anything. I've resisted learning all my life, and I don't propose to start teaching others...
