Interviews with Francis Bacon “Whether the distortions which I think sometimes bring the image over more violently are damage is a very questionable idea. I don’t think it is damage.

One brings the sensation and the feeling of life over the only way one can. I don’t say it’s a good way, but one brings it over at the most acute point one can…” “[W]hen you’re outside a tradition, as every artist is today, one can only want to record one’s own feelings about certain situations as closely to one’s own nervous system as one possibly can.” –Francis Bacon
