When Artists Make Art, They Shouldn't Question

New Materials Are One Of The Great Afflictions Of Contemporary Art. Some Artists Confuse New Materials With New Ideas.

I Was Not Interested In Irony; I Wanted To Emphasize The Primacy Of The Idea In Making Art

When An Artist Uses A Conceptual Form Of Art, It Means That All Of The Planning And Decisions Are Made Beforehand And The Execution Is A Perfunctory Affair. The Idea Becomes A Machine That Makes The Art.

A Work Of Art May Be Understood As A Conductor From The Artist's Mind To The Viewer's. But It May Never Reach The Viewer, Or It May Never Leave The Artist's Mind.

When Words Such As Painting And Sculpture Are Used, They Connote A Whole Tradition And Imply A Consequent Acceptance Of This Tradition, Thus Placing Limitations On The Artist Who Would Be Reluctant To Make Art That Goes Beyond The Limitations.
