The Artist's Job Is To Be A

Basically Painting Is Total Idiocy.

A Canvas Is Never Empty.

I Don't Really Trust Ideas - Especially Good Ones... Rather, I Put My Trust In The Materials That Confront Me, Because They Put Me In Touch With The Unknown.

It Is Neither Art For Art, Nor Art Against Art. I Am For Art, But For Art That Has Nothing To Do With Art. Art Has Everything To Do With Life, But It Has Nothing To Do With Art.

I Never Allowed Myself The Luxury Of Those Brilliant, Beautiful Colors Until I Went To India And Saw People Walking Around In Them Or Dragging Them In The Mud. I Realised They Were Not So Artificial.
