Lot Essay

"C'est dans les bottes de foin qu'il faut mettre les aiguilles! Les mettre en péril. C'est quand on met les choses en extrême péril que leur bonté se met à chanter. Moi j'aime mettre les choses que j'aime en extrême péril. C'est quand on est sur le point de perdre la chose qu'elle s'illumine." ("We should put needles into haystacks! Put them in danger. It's when we put things in extreme danger that their beauty sings. I love to put things which I love in extreme danger. It's when we are on the point of loosing something that it shines.")
(Jean Dubuffet, Grafik, exhibition catalogue, Museum of Silkeborg, p. 95)
