The creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act.

The individual, man as a man, man as a brain, if you like, interests me more than what he makes, because I've noticed that most artists only repeat themselves.

You cannot define electricity. The same can be said of art. It is a kind of inner current in a human being, or something which needs no definition.

Art is not about itself but the attention we bring to it.

Art has the lovely habit of ruining all artistic theories.

Since I found that one could make a case shadow from a three-dimensional thing, any object whatsoever - just as the projecting of the sun on the earth makes two dimensions - I thought that by simple intellectual analogy, the fourth dimension could project an object of three dimensions, or, to put it another way, any three-dimensional object, which we see dispassionately, is a projection of something four-dimensional, something we are not familiar with.

In my day artists wanted to be outcasts, pariahs. Now they are all integrated into society
