Artists teach critics what to think. Critics repeat what the artists teach them.

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

What the work of art looks like isn't too important. It has to look like something if it has a physical form. No matter what form it may finally have it must begin with an idea. It is the process of conception and realization with which the artist is concerned.

One should be intelligent enough to know when not to be too intellectual

I didn't want to save art - I respected the older artists too much to think art needed saving. But I knew it was finished, even though, at that time, I didn't know what I would do.

Also, since art is a vehicle for the transmission of ideas through form, the reproduction of the form only reinforces the concept. It is the idea that is being reproduced. Anyone who understands the work of art owns it. We all own the Mona Lisa.

Artists are mystics rather than rationalists. They leap to conclusions that logic cannot reach.
