...his life is his painting! Crazy are those men or women who imagine they count beside that exacting deity.
From everything that he has been able to touch, to feel, to understand, Picabia has made painting... the events of life, whether they had been from the material, moral or sentimental domain, have only been for him means to serve it, he has mercilessly rejected whatever would have been able to hinder him from doing it...
.....His life is to live and consequently to evolve. He has no memories, he “forgets in order to be reborn.” Superficially his art can be recounted by stages, but if only one might be gifted with sensitivity in feeling how the whole is “linked.”
Germaine Everling, Francis Picabia vu d’en haut, unpublished statement in Olga Picabia (ed.), Francis Picabia, Milan 1975, p. 102–103.
