the art world has always been an unrelenting taste machine, but now flavors of the month have morphed into flavors of the minute. Again, all a reflection of a wider cultural condition. I mean, the art world is slow compared with the music and movie businesses.

Direct address has been a consistent tactic in my work, regardless of the medium that I'm working in.

Warhol's images made sense to me, although I knew nothing at the time of his background in commercial art. To be honest, I didn't think about him a hell of a lot.

I think pictures and words have the power to make us rich or poor.

I think I developed language skills to deal with threat. It's the girl thing to do-you know, instead of pulling out a gun.

I don't necessarily think that installation is the only way to go. It's just a label for certain kinds of arrangements.

Seeing is no longer believing. The very notion of truth has been put into crisis. In a world bloated with images, we are finally learning that photographs do indeed lie.
