Everybody Is Of Course Free To Interpret

One Wants One's Work To Be The World, But Of Course It's Never The World. The Work Is In The World; It Never Contains The Whole Thing.

A Picture Ought To Be Looked At The Same Way You Look At A Radiator.

In My Early Work, I Tried To Hide My Personality, My Psychological State, My Emotions. This Was Partly Due To My Feelings About Myself And Partly Due To My Feelings About Painting At The Time. I Sort Of Stuck To My Guns For A While But Eventually It Seemed Like A Losing Battle. Finally One Must Simply Drop The Reserve.

I Never Wish For Critics.

I Feel That Works Of Art Are An Opportunity For People To Construct Meaning, So I Don't Usually Tell What They Mean. It Conveys To People That They Have To Participate.
