Recessions are hard on people, but they are not hard on Art.

There are many, many art worlds. Art contains multitudes.

I rage against Vincent van Gogh for needing to die at 37, after painting for only ten years.

Artists working for other artists is all about knowing, learning, unlearning, initiating long-term artistic dialogues, making connections, creating covens, and getting temporary shelter from the storm.

The Met is not only the finest encyclopedic museum of art in the United States; it is arguably the finest anywhere.

I think that cynicism is the enemy. Cynicism thinks it knows how things work. "Oh yeah, you know how that works." I think uncertainty is the thing you have to keep embracing. You have to keep saying, I actually don't know, and going out is going to tell me something every time.

Art is good, bad, boring, ugly, useful to us or not.
