    I think it’s almost impossible to get away from anecdotal ideas or anything that’s figurative if you use a curved line. Any curvilinear line will suggest the figurative or forms in nature, for sure. It’s almost impossible not to imply representation with a curvilinear line, even if it is not intended. Richard Serra
