I'm all about supporting anyone whose art is also the way they make their living.

I have a healthy view of what one can do with art.

Art is the proper task of life.

We are concerned with the relationship between art and life. Contemporary art is only intelligible in terms of its relationship to our life.

Art gives people a reason to be alive.

Art includes everything that stimulates the desire to live.

My position is that serious and good art has always existed to help, to serve, humanity. Not to indict. I don't see how art can be called art if its purpose is to frustrate humanity.

If art has a purpose, it is to interpret life, reproduce it in fresh visions.

For me, art is about learning and about living with people. It's alive.

Art is the close scrutiny of reality and therefore I put on the stage only those things that I know happen in our society.
