Perhaps the paintings in a museum are subjected to more nonsense than you would hear anywhere else in the world.The language that comes out of an artist’s life is the painting itself. It contains the most ordinary lives that know failure, desire, recoiling in fear, and compromise.Learning is about understanding that language.

This place enables us to transcend such limitations. By sheer coincidence, I ended up visiting that place and began living an entirely different life.
