Abstract

"... The key to Abstract Art especially that of Abstract Expressionism lies in the discovery of the self and the exploitation by a suitable technique, of that hidden store of virgin material which we must find a path and we all carry within us and to which this is perhaps the hardest aspect of the artist's work before it can be brought to light." (Seuphor, 1972, p. 3)
