The thinking of John Cage derived from Duchamp and Dada. I was not interested in that.

All of the significant art of today stems from Conceptual art. This includes the art of installation, political, feminist and socially directed art.

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.

I wasn't really that interested in objects. I was interested in ideas.

The narrative of serial art works more like music than like literature.

Once it is out of his hand the artist has no control over the way a viewer will perceive the work. Different people will understand the same thing in a different way.

Banal ideas cannot be rescued by beautiful execution.
