Hans Hoffman - "Landscape"

The two quotes that I feel apply well to this painting are, "It is not the form that dictates the color, but the color that brings out the form."  As well as, "The whole world, as we experience it visually, comes to us through the mystic realm of color."  The first quote works well because Hoffman clearly uses color to abstractly create the form of a landscape.  The second applies because he is speaking of visualizing the world, and in the painting he is creating the abstract form of the landscape, which goes hand in hand with visualizing the world.
