Bacon, Francis 1909 Dublin | 1992 Madrid † http://www.ceballos.ws/enlaces/artistas/bacon.htm

"He could not draw. His ability to paint was limited and the way he laid the pigments on the canvas was often barbarous. He had no ideas, other than one or two morbid fancies arising from his homosexuality, chaotic way of life, and Irish fear of death. What he did have was a gimmick, something resembling an advertising-designer's logo. In his case it was a knack of portraying the human face or body not so much twisted as smeared our of shape. It was enough. Such a logo could easily be dressed up by the scriptwriters of the Industry into an image of 'our despairing century'; it fitted their favourite words: 'disquieting', 'disturbing'...."

Paul Johnson,  Francis Bacon: Myth of the Modern,  The Sunday Times, 3 May 1992

"Very few people find their real instincts. Every now and then there's an artist who does and who makes something new and actually thickens the texture of life. But it's very rare.  You have to be able to be really free to find yourself in that way, without any moral or religious constraints. After all, life is nothing but a series of sensations, so one may as well try and make oneself extraordinary, extraordinary and brilliant, even if it means becoming a  brilliant fool like me and having the kind of disastrous life that i have had. That is it."  

Francis Bacon, from Anatomy Of An Enigma by Michael Peppiatt, 1996
