Unfortunately, I haven't thought sufficiently about art. What I never realized - and it's really stupid - is the art world is the art world because all these thousands of famous and not-famous artists do things, over centuries. This hadn't occurred to me.

Artists rarely do the same thing over and over again. Art is about the new, doing things in a new way.

I think art comes from some sense of discomfort with the world, some sense of not quite fitting with it.

Art is so subjective, and people can react however they want.

Art is a liaison between some sort of deranged mentality and others who are not going through it.

I am always rethinking how art is perceived and received, questioning our relationship to art. That's always been a constant.

What the art world has done, it has been constantly been pushing the boundaries about what art can be. It's like expanding its territory.

Art is basically made by dissatisfied people who are willing to find some means to relieve the dissatisfaction.

I have long been a fan and enthusiast where art is concerned.

Art is for anyone. It just isn't for everyone. Still, over the past decade, its audience has hugely grown, and that's irked those outside the art world, who get irritated at things like incomprehensibility or money.
