All the art of the world begins with the first stone sharpened by a Palaeolithic hunter, with these first attempts of man at testing matter and its quality. Though the appearance of art is confused with that of technique, art very quickly requires an important qualification and soon stands out within the design of the diversity of work. If it were only for intellectual enjoyment or for pleasure, art would be nothing more than a game when in fact it is the projection of a real life experience. Whatever archaic or modern civilisation he belongs to, the artist, each time he begins to work, stands aside from the arguments of his time, overcomes the doubts and anguish which strew his path and primarily rediscovers that moment of privilege when there is reason in humanity's conflict.
