'Ik benijd de Japanners om die enorme helderheid die alle dingen bij hen hebben. Nooit is het saai en nooit lijkt het te veel in haast gemaakt. Hun werk is even gemakkelijk als ademhalen en zij maken een figuur in enkele trefzekere lijnen'

Firstly I remember the way Lucassen used to look at things, his eyes so indescribably still and attentive. The eyes of a painter looking at things in order to make them still. Painters look with intense patience so that they will not disregard even the smallest of things. They look that way at a painting for a long time while it is being made – until the work is finished. It is finished when the painter no longer knows how to continue.

But still he goes on looking and peering to see what th...
