>>>[interviewer] What does flesh represent to you?
>>Francis Bacon:
>Flesh and meat are life! If I paint red meat as I paint bodies it is just because I find it very beautiful. I don’t think anyone has ever really understood that. Ham, pigs, tongues, sides, of beef seen in the butcher’s window, all that death, I find it very beautiful. And it’s all for sale―how unbelievably surrealistic!
>I often imagine that the accident that made man into the animal he has become also happened to other animals –lions or hyenas for example– while man remained a primate. It's bizarre. I have never read anything about it by Darwin or anyone else. Perhaps it's science fiction, but it's very interesting. I imagine men hanging in butchers shops for hyenas, who would be dressed in fur coats. The men would be hung by their feet, or cut up for stew or kebabs. We are all meat. All the inhabitants of this planet are made of meat. And most of them are carnivores. And when you fuck, it's a piece of meat penetrating another peace of meat. There is no difference between our meat and the meat of an ox or an elephant.
