Note du spécialiste

“Art is two things: a search for a road and a search for freedom. It’s very hard to get freedom. You know all these things in life keep crawling over you all of the time. So it’s very hard to feel free” (A. Neel quoted in W. Koestenbaum, Alice Neel: Paintings from the Thirties, p. 86).
