One should be intelligent enough to know when not to be too intellectual
During the '70s I was interested in words and meaning as a way of making art.
Minimalism wasn't a real idea - it ended before it started.
Donโt worry about cool, make your own uncool.
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.
Buying books was a way anyone could acquire a work of art for very little.
