“I am very much afraid of definitions, and yet one is almost forced to make them. One must take care, too, not to be inhibited by them.”
-Robert Delaunay
*Delaunay was a member of the “Abstraction-Creation Group was an avant-garde school of artists who worked with geometric abstract forms. The founders of the movement included Jean Arp, Theo van Doesburg, Albert Gleizes, Jean Hélion, Auguste Herbin, Frantisek Kupka, Georges Vantongerloo and Georges Valmier.”
