Every generation renews itself in its own way; there's always a reaction against whatever is standard.

Irrational judgements lead to new experience.

New materials are one of the great afflictions of contemporary art. Some artists confuse new materials with new ideas.

I was not interested in irony; I wanted to emphasize the primacy of the idea in making art

Minimal art went nowhere.

When an artist uses a conceptual form of art, it means that all of the planning and decisions are made beforehand and the execution is a perfunctory affair. The idea becomes a machine that makes the art.

All intervening steps, scribbles, sketches, drawings, failed work models, studies thoughts, conversations, are of interest. Those that show the thought process of the artist are sometimes more interesting than the final product
