So at a time in which the media give the public everything it wants and desires, maybe art should adopt a much more aggressive attitude towards the public. I myself am very much inclined to take this position.

We only exist in terms of how we think we exist. Meaning every cultural development is fabricated and can be fabricated.

I've been such an outsider my whole life.

Our idea of nature is increasingly being determined by scientific developments. And they have become decisive for our image of reality.

Architecture is a discipline that takes time and patience. If one spends enough years writing complex novels one might be able, someday, to construct a respectable haiku.

The huge problem in our society is the enormous ignorance of the ideas that underlie modern art.

It's too simplistic to advance the notion of the autonomy of art as a reason for turning away from the public. You can have autonomy and simultaneously have connections with the social and political world.
