Any artist can't get away from the way the world works, which is that it wants to know what you did, and you're only interested in what you're doing right now.

A sculpture is just a painting cut out and stood up somewhere.

Architecture can't fully represent the chaos and turmoil that are part of the human personality, but you need to put some of that turmoil into the architecture, or it isn't real.

Making art is complicated because the categories are always changing. You just have to make your own art, and whatever categories it falls into will come later.

Up until 35 I had a slightly skewed world view. I honestly believed everybody in the world wanted to make abstract paintings, and people only became lawyers and doctors and brokers and things because they couldn't make abstract paintings

I don't like a lot of the stuff that goes on in the art world, but it's hard to be old and like what goes on around you.

You see what you know!
