Quote me as much as you like; as a matter of fact I don’t even mind if you misquote me !

Dada cannot live in New York. All New York is dada, and will not tolerate a rival.

I do not photograph nature. I photograph my visions.

The complicated engines manufactured by men demand, if one really wants to use them, much calm. Ever since our love for machines replaced the love we used to have for our fellow man, catastrophes proceed to increase.

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.

Just as I work with paints, brushes, and canvas, I work with the light, pieces of glass and chemistry.

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.
