Celestial Mission – portrait of Ernst Fuchs

 

“As we dream, all things that we shall know, come to us unknown.
Art will always be for it is a celestial behavior
– it will never cease, as some believe these Days –
for there is Despair and lack of Love to Labor.

Labor is the prayer of Art.
Art will Live for ever and ever because the Creator is an endless Being –
and genius is not the Exception but the profound and common Rule
by which the Universe and We are measured.
It is the Foundation of Man and his World is the Universe.
If Art will cease one day, Man will cease with it.”

~Ernst Fuchs
1974
