[QUOTE=Allan Rahbek]I think that the analogy of music is a possible key to understand the essence of art painting.

Allan, I agree, it is indeed.

I cant help thinking that the most important issue for the modernist painter is to force him/her self to bring out something that has not been done before. And that he believes that nothing at all should be repeated from the past. He is afraid to look back in time. And throws his brush
around to make sure he will not be compared with someone from the past. And in the end , if he`s lucky , he will be blessed by the king and queen.
