About the Artwork Einstein is an Abstract-Gestalt portrait of Albert Einstein. Einstein's genius in science was matched only by his commitment to pacifism and social justice. This portrait depicts the depth and complexity of Einstein through a combination abstract pattern, emergent form, color, and quotes by Einstein incorporated into the work. Quotes in the work include: The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed. The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge. The real problem is in the hearts and minds of men. It is easier to denature plutonium than to denature the evil spirit of man. The wireless telegraph is not difficult to understand. The ordinary telegraph is like a very long cat. You pull the tail in New York, and it meows in Los Angeles. The wireless is the same, only without the cat. He who joyfully marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice.
