A great quote by Robert Storr, Dean of Yale's School of Art, comparing the two artists both of whom are still working today; "To a great extent Jasper is a literary artist. His work is coded with secret messages. Ellsworth is purely a visual artist. With Ellsworth there is no message, just an experience."
That experience can be so rewarding in terms of the aesthetic pleasure but it is difficult for some people to achieve when confronted with visual art that is purely abstract.
