"Light in Nature creates the movement of colors"

- Robert Delaunay

About this Quote

Robert Delaunay, a French artist, thought that nature's light plays a crucial function in producing the motions of colors. He noted how the interaction of light with things, from trees, flowers to mountains, alters the understanding of their colors. For Delaunay, light isn't fixed; it alters continuously depending on where items remain in time and area. He skillfully recorded this dynamic through his usage of lively and contrasting colors, providing a sense of motion and energy to his paintings. Delaunay's fascination with light and color revolutionized the art world and paved the way for abstract art movements. His works continue to influence artists worldwide in their exploration of how light and color shape our understanding of the world around us.
