Synopsis
Excerpt from Hodler
Mais le géomètre ne fait pas l'artiste, du moins pas à lui seul. Aussi bien cette mathématique plastique n'existe t-elle pas pour elle-même, ni par elle - même. Elle dessine une certaine attitude de l'âme et sa façon de réagir à l'univers. Avant d'être forme elle est émotion, amour ou douleur, expérience; elle n'est vivante qu'à ce prix Elle est le langage d'un homme. Dont il ne faut pas oublier, au surplus, que le fondement premier de son art est dans une étude patiente et passionnée de la na ture, entreprise et longtemps poursuivie sans système préconçu.
