Art is not about objects of high monetary exchange. It's about reasserting our firsthand experience in present time.

Our appearance belongs to others, we live in the darkness of the body-part of all darkness but felt.

Art has to change things, and if it was immediately acceptable it would not be doing the job.

I think critics are very useful. But I think that they, in a way, betray their position when they stop people looking for themselves.

I want to start where language ends.

We are not moving towards some kind of goal. We are at the goal, and it is changing with us. If art has any purpose, it is to open our eyes to that fact.

Art is the means by which we communicate what it feels like to be alive - in the past, that was mixed up with other illustrative duties, but that was still its central function that has been liberated in the art called modern.
