About myself, my work, my school

First Concept.

About myself, my work, my school - I never considered myself “the founder” of any particular school. I would consider it a limitation in a world of unexhaustible [sic] creativ [sic] possibilities. – As an artist I never have belonged to any group. I am not a teacher in the usual sense either. I am a painter which had to teach for his livelyhood [sic] to assure artistic indepense [sic]. In this function I became the initiator and disseminator of certain creativ ideas that have contributed to the cultural evolution of our time. My very in most thoughts hold in my opinion the key to many schools, past, present and of the future. – I enjoy the wrong reputation that I love to teach. What I really love in the function as a teacher is the steady contact with new possibilities in the future – with new generation. Because teaching is not really 1 vocation on my part, I have made the beste [sic] of it in making it the greatest pleasur [sic] for myself by giving myself completely as an artist and as human beeing [sic]. It explains the success of my school. Its psychological reasons are:

1.)    I handle every student from the beginning as the individual he really is
2)      by establishing what is in the man his very own I cultivate his creativ instincts and keep them alive in the spark that must enflame his entire artistic future.
3)      As teacher I respect the smalest (sic) talent –
A pearl is a pearl great or smal (sic)
A talent is a talent great and smal – the sume (sic) total of it makes the cultural assessment of a nation.

A teacher must investigate and clarify the mysteries of the creativ process. This is a very hart (sic) task and contrary to an artistic temperament, because it ask (sic) from him to explain the inexplanable (sic). The artist works with the full register of all his senses and need no theories and explanations. He is constantely (sic) ask to explain his work. I excuse myself always in stating: my work as a total represents a chain development from work to work toward an end that I only vaguely sense.

All creativ utterance is in its final analysis a reflection of nature since we are part of nature. All means of creation have a very distinctiv (sic) Life of its own.

All that is comunicated (sic) with the help of it to be really thru (sic true?) must respect the aesthetical demands of the inherent nature of the means.

Life is the expression of cosmic forces as distinguished from physical forces through which it exsist (sic). As a living entity nature stimulates in us the urge to create.

My own work is initiated by inner vision in the capacity to sense the mysteries in nature and reveal it through the act of creation. There is no end in both and therefor (sic) no end in conceptional growth. I hate to repeat myself, I hate manirism (sic) and false styles and I detest eclecticism. I know only one things for certain!

Art starts where construction ends.

“Only visionary experience transformed into visionary pictorial expression will produce a masterwork.”
