The idea was to take fine art and put it into the location of the movie scripts. The script itself is collage - some of the lines come from actual movies and I've written others to make the text work with the found image. In this way, the details of old dead guys' paintings (from the collection of the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, where this work will be exhibited in relation to the historical paintings) become illustrations of the movie scripts. I found this mélange of high art and Hollywood amusing.

It's human desire to be understood. And we always feel we're not understood.

I think the term 'conceptual art' is a useful term for writers, a basket to put people in, like Pop Art or Impressionism or whatever.

Most of my friends are women. I think women are more interesting to talk to.

I think art, if it's meaningful at all, is a conversation with other artists. You say something, they say something, you move back and forth.

Well, why is this art? Why isn't that art?

The idea of vaudeville clowns and court jesters is always to show the flaw, to point out what's not working and why it's not coherent.
