An Artist Is Someone Who Makes Art...

You Have To Keep On The Very Edge Of Something, All The Time, Or The Picture Dies.

The Past Does Not Influence Me; I Influence It.

Every So Often, A Painter Has To Destroy Painting. Cezanne Did It, Picasso Did It With Cubism. Then Pollock Did It. He Busted Our Idea Of A Picture All To Hell. Then There Could Be New Paintings Again.

And Then There Is That One-man Movement, Marcel Duchamp For Me A Truly Modern Movement Because It Implies That Each Artist Can Do What He Thinks He Ought To A Movement For Each Person And Open For Everybody.

Style Is A Fraud. I Always Felt The Greeks Were Hiding Behind Their Columns.
