Galleries are easier to steal from than the Apple Store, maybe.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The reason Apple is really good, I think, and the reason their stores succeeded, is not just 'cause we know the big idea, but we have a real passion for the littlest detail. It's legendary in our products.
I think the only reason you visit an Apple store is because you wonder what life is like on another planet.
Apple has great marketing, among the best PR and marketing in the world.
Apple has beautiful design, beautiful product, incredibly functional. But mostly, it's about picking product, getting behind it, marketing it, and introducing it to a customer. What they've done just inspires me.
First of all, I only get 50 percent of it, because, I mean, the galleries get 50 and 60 percent. I mean, that's normal. I understand that. I don't quarrel with that.
I really think the app store is kind of the killer app for Apple and for Google.
You know, I lose patience really easily; I'd rather shop in the grocery store than in the department store. I can pick an apple like nobody's business.
There's something pleasing about large, well-lit spaces. I love that dealers are willing to take massive chances in order to give this much room to their artists. Most of all, I love that more galleries showing more art gives more artists a shot.
Part of the film business is, if you want an apple, you buy an apple.
Galleries, and they're all the same, and rightly so, they sell work.
