I'm seeking to have an art that is engaged as a way for saying, 'Hurray for unity.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Just doing a project because it's an opportunity won't create meaning. As an artist, I need something to communicate.
During the '70s I was interested in words and meaning as a way of making art.
And that's what art is, a form in which people can reflect on who we are as human beings and come to some understanding of this journey we are on.
Art is that which comes to a man, and stands between himself and an implacable witness: the work.
Artwork is a representation of our devotion to life.
My goal is to make fine art, and fine art comes from the soul. If you have virtuosity and facility, you can take and create something of significance.
I don't believe that art is just for entertainment. I want to create art that is meaningful in some way.
I'm looking to evolve the concept of the new renaissance artist, taking the world by storm through the art of public display and demonstration, with technical savvy, using cell phones and computers.
We want a vernacular in art. No mere verbal or formal agreement, or dead level of uniformity but that comprehensive and harmonizing unity with individual variety which can be developed among people politically and socially free.
You don't have to have a great art idea - just get to work and something will happen. So that's pretty much my modus operandi and pretty much my principal position, such as it is.
