I like that the art world isn't regulated.

Contrary to popular opinion things don't go stale particularly fast in the art world.

Art usually only makes the news in America when the subject is money.

Wolfgang Tillman's stunning large-scale pictures being shown for the first time were so offhand I failed to see them as art.

The art world is an all-volunteer force. No one has to be here if he or she doesn't want to be and we should be associating with anyone we want to.

To me nothing in the art world is neutral. The idea of 'disinterest' strikes me as boring dishonest dubious and uninteresting.

The price of a work of art has nothing to do with what the work of art is can do or is worth on an existential alchemical level.

I hate art auctions.

Robert Rauschenberg was not a giant of American art he was the giant. No American created so many aesthetic openings for so many artists.

Megacollectors suppose they can enter art history by spending astronomical amounts.

All art comes from other art and all immigrants come from other places.

The art gods cooked up something special for James Ensor.
