Time extracts various values from a painter's work. When these values are exhausted the pictures are forgotten, and the more a picture has to give, the greater it is.

With photography, you've captured a moment time - it's that moment only - and in painting, you play with it; you manipulate how time is presented. It's about fantasy and illusion and the creation of desire.
Time, memory, loss and love are my main artistic concerns, but time, among all of them, becomes the determinant.
Painting becomes interesting when it becomes timeless.
Every painting I do blends time frames. The great thing about being an artist is I can make the past join the present in some reality of the future.
The notion of time bothers me. You look at thirty-year-old photographs and realize how the time has passed.
The Photograph is concerned with the power that the past has to interfere with the present: the time bomb in the cupboard.
Photography can only represent the present. Once photographed, the subject becomes part of the past.
Time, which changes people, does not alter the image we have retained of them.
Every work of art belongs to his time. I would not paint again the Mona Lisa in the third dimension.
In the experience of art, time seems not to exist.
