Francis Bacon (1909-1992) fotografiado en su taller en 1971. Lleva puesta la misma camisa que aparece en su Autorretrato de 1972 - http://www.flogup.com/akermariano/1246406


ORIGINALIDAD BACONIANA en 7 CITAS

• You want something new. Not an illustrative realism but a realism that comes through a real invention of a new way to lock reality into something completely arbitrary.

• I feel that without a subject you automatically go back into decoration because you haven’t got the subject which is always eating into you to bring it back – and the greatest art always returns you to the vulnerability of the human situation.

• I want to isolate the image and to take it away from the interior and the home.

• What I want to do is to distort the thing far beyond the appearance, but in the distortion to bring it back to a recording of the appearance.

• Oscar Wilde [...] said that you kill the thing you love. It may be that; I don’t know. Whether the distortions which I think sometimes bring the image over more violently are damage is a very questionable idea. I don’t think it is damage. You may say it’s damaging if you take it on the level of illustration. But not if you take it on the level of what I think of as art.

• I have never tried to be horrific. One only has to have observed things and know the undercurrents to realize that anything that I have been able to do hasn’t stressed that side of life. When you go into a butcher’s shop and see how beautiful meat can be and then you think about it, you can think of the whole horror of life.

• I think art is an obsession with life and after all, as we are human beings, our greatest obsession is with ourselves.
