“Κind of writing” that traverse the aesthetic stereotype. “Converts the surface in an allusive field of writing -allusion, a rhetorical figure, consists in saying one thing with the intention of making another understood-“

[He -Twombly-] “produces all the rest (the “surplus”) without necessarily seeking to produce anything. The artist (let us retain this somewhat kitsch term) is by status an “operator” of gestures: he seeks to produce an effect and at the same time seeks no such thing; he seeks to produce an effect and at the same time seeks no such thing; the effects he produces he has not obligatorily sought out; they are reversed, inadvertent effects which turn back upon him and thereupon provoke certain modifications, deviations, mitigations of the line, of the stroke. […]the artist´s gesture- or the artist as gesture”

“The work looks as if it had been drawing by his left hand”, “to the cicly of the excluded, the marginal-where he finds himself, of course, with the children, the disabled: the “gauche” (or the “lefty”) is a kind of blind man: he doesn´t quite see the direction, the bearing of his gestures; only his hand guides him, or that hand´s desire, not its instrumental aptitude; the eye serves to control, to coordinate, to imitate; as an exclusive art of seeing, all our past painting has been subject to a repressive rationality. […] to my taste, by TW´s, unclassifiable because it unites, by an inimitable stroke, both inscription and erasure, childhood and culture, drift and invention”.
