I paint what cannot be photographed, something from the imagination... I photograph the things I don't want to paint, things that are already in existence.

All critics should be assassinated.

To me, a painter, if not the most useful, is the least harmful member of our society.

I believe in the relation between photography and music; And thats my inspiration.

There is no progress in art, any more than there is progress in making love.

When I saw I was under attack from all sides, I knew I was on the right track.

A camera alone does not make a picture. To make a picture you need a camera, a photographer and above all a subject. It is the subject that determines the interest of the photograph.
