Art dealing is when you're doing it as a business.

Ramp skating has become the most popular televised form of skating because they can constrain it. They can judge it based on what's happening within this box of a ramp.

Part of my agenda has been to support art that engages life with people.

Every day you run into artists on the streets in SoHo or other creative people you want to do something with. There's nothing to match that chance encounter.

We use the term pop in the art world, as in Pop Art, but we forget that its root is popular - popular culture.

Street skating, which is what I grew up with, is completely free of rules. You can do anything. When I see a skater go by, I think, What is this person going to do here? It's the same with people who write, who make music, who draw, who make movies. Creative people tend to have all of those different avenues in them.

There is a constant ebb and flow in art historical reputations. The reputation of even the greatest figures like Picasso are in flux.
