I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I passionately hate the idea of being with it; I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.
Contrary to general belief, an artist is never ahead of his time but most people are far behind theirs.
A great artist is always before his time or behind it.
A good artist has less time than ideas.
I think that it's the job of the artist to be in transition and constantly learn more.
I think the job of artists is to stir things up.
An artist is maybe not always having a normal life.
Any artist that's involved in their work is inevitably going to have a focus in what they do.
No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he would cease to be an artist.
No artist is ahead of his time. He is his time; it is just that others are behind the times.
