Excerpt from Modern Painting: Its Tendency and Meaning In stripping art of its intriguing charm and its soothing vagueness it is not my intention to do away with its power to delight. To the contrary, I believe that only by relieving paint ing of its dead cargo of literature, archaeology and illustration can it be made to function freely. Painting should be as pure an art as music, and the struggles of all great painters have been toward that goal. Its medium colour - is as elemental as sound, and when properly presented (with the same scientific exactness as the harmonies of the tone-gamut) it is fully as capable of engendering aesthetic emotion as is music. Our delight in music, no matter how primitive, is not dependent on an imitation of natural sounds. Music's pleas urable significance is primarily intelleétual. So can painting, by its power to create emotion and not mere sensation, provoke deep zesthetic feeling of a far greater intensity than the delight derived from transcription and drama. Modern painting strives toward the heightening of emo tional ecstasy; and my esthétique is intended to pave the way for an appreciation of art which will make possible the reception of that ecstasy. With this object ever in view I have weighed the painting of the last century, and have judged it solely by its ability or inability to call forth a profound aesthetic emotion. Almost any art can arouse pleasing sentiments. Only great art can give us intellectual rapture. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
