Recortes

"Estando as respostas no exterior, chegou a altura de colocar as perguntas e não as respostas dentro da escola. Por outras palavras, é agora possível fazer da escola, não um lugar de informação pré-preparada, mas um local de observação e descoberta. " - Marshall McLuhan, Compreender-me.

If we trust our eyes, and not our preconceived ideas of what things ought to look like according to academic rules, we shall make the most exciting discoveries. - E. H. Gombrich, The Story Of Art

There is no such thing as Art. There are only artists - men and women, that is, who are favoured with the wonderful gift of balancing shapes and colours till they are "right", and, rarer still, who possess the integrity of character wich never rests content with half solutions but is ready to forgo all easy effects, all superficial success for the toil and agony of sincere work. - E. H. Gombrich, The Story Of Art
