Vantongerloo Georges 'Function' - 1938


“The idea is the form, the form the idea. The composition is conceived, ab initio, in plastic terms. It cannot be transelated into any other language, and is not itself a translation from any other language. The desire forthe new form’ as an independent organism was created by a feeling of discomfort in relation to the reproducing painting.” – The philosophy of modern art by Herbert Read, 1964.
