But the one thing you should. not do is to suppose that when something is wrong with the arts, it is wrong with the arts ONLY.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't think there should be a hierarchy of what is valid in the arts.
I don't think there is too much art involved in what I do.
I have a healthy view of what one can do with art.
Art is the close scrutiny of reality and therefore I put on the stage only those things that I know happen in our society.
The arts capture our insecurities, quicken our instincts, guide us through threats. They help us know ourselves. They help us know each other. They help us know better.
The more you think, the more you ruin things. Art has to come viscerally; otherwise, forget it.
Art is a way to express yourself and through that you can escape a bad situation.
If what you want to do is make good art, decide what's good and try to imitate it.
There's no wrong way of doing art. It's an expression of the individual.
Treat a work of art like a prince. Let it speak to you first.
