Frank Stella Quotes:
Ocupation: Painter
Life: b. May 12, 1936
Birthday: May 12
I always get into arguments with people who want to retain the old values in painting - the humanistic values that they... find on the canvas. If you pin them down, they always end up asserting that there is something there besides the paint on the canvas. My painting is based on the fact that only what can be seen there is there... What you see is what you get.
