The internet has extended the possibility of making art to more people, and particularly of enabling it to be seen by others. I am sure the internet is having a profound impact on art, particularly those who have grown up with it, but making good art will remain as difficult (and as easy) as it ever was. Having a lasting impact may become more not less difficult.
Michael Craig-MartinI thought the objects we value least because they were ubiquitous were actually the most extraordinary.
Michael Craig-MartinI have been using the computer as a work aid since the mid-90's. It is extraordinarily well suited to how I think and work and has transformed my practice. Nearly everything I have done in the past 15 years would have been impossible without it. I use the computer for drawing, composing and colour planning everything, from postage stamps to paintings to architectural-scale installations.
Michael Craig-MartinI am personally happy for artists to make as much money as they can while they can to carry them through the times when they can't.
