Whenever the medium of photography is useful for a particular task, I use it. If another medium is more suitable I use that.

What I'm very upset about is the attempt to dictate to museums what they show, and the statements made by politicians in Washington that have curtailed the freedom of the National Endowment for the Arts. The attention to those issues is deflected by the spin of my supposedly having trivialized the Holocaust.

Museums are not normally presenting the works on the walls as provocations to work. It's more like going to a Jacuzzi.

Artists and art institutions have to learn how to play hardball. A democratic society needs a democratic art and we have a right to demand it.

Trivializing the Holocaust is the last thing I want to do.

Art-making is just another part of the consciousness industry.
