ACT (Aesthetically Claimed Thing): Lawrence Gowing, "Cezanne: The Logic of Organized Sensations" (1977).

"[Cezanne realized that in the new context a picture that was touched with the knife should be painted with the knife throughout. He intuitively understood that in the new age that handling was the picture. The consistency of facture that Cezanne achieved makes a new kind of intrinsic material unity, which links the picture not only with the material significance of objects, but with the common consistency of the material world."
