Pop Art is industrial painting. I think the meaning of my work is that it is industrial, it's what all the world will soon become. Europe will be the same way, soon, it won't be American; it will be universal.

I'd always wanted to know the difference between a mark that was art and one that wasn't.

Use the worst colour you can find in each place - it usually is the best.

There must be something about art... almost all cultures have done art. It's a refining of the senses, which are there to keep us alive. As far as we know, no other animals do that.

I like to pretend that my art has nothing to do with me.

My direction is very anti-contemplative. If you thought I was for commercial products, you'd think there was no irony. The irony isn't meant to be an ironic comment on our society, exactly.

All my art is in some way about other art, even if the other art is cartoons.
