If I have the choice of traveling to Russia, India or New Zealand alone for a week for preliminary discussions or to spend that week with my family, I routinely choose my family.

I see the artist as a participant, a co-producer of reality.

Photographs have a relevance for things that cannot be said.

The viewer brings something individual to the experience of any artwork.

I don't think you need to be so result-oriented when you're trying to define the success of an art work. I think we can allow some unpredictability.

When museums are left with so little money that their future is in the hands of private donors, then they are unable to develop their own signatures by collecting themselves. On the other hand, though, I think we should also celebrate the fact that there is a lot of art that lives outside of, or on the outskirts of, the art market - and it is doing quite well.

My goal is to formulate a new color theory based on the full spectrum of visible light.
