“I don't listen to what art critics say. I don't know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is.”
Tip: press → for another quote, C to copy, S to share.
Since I was seventeen I thought I might be a star. I'd think about all my heroes, Charlie Parker, Jimi Hendrix... I had a romantic feeling about how these people became famous.
I don't think about art when I'm working. I try to think about life.
I had some money, I made the best paintings ever. I was completely reclusive, worked a lot, took a lot of drugs. I was awful to people.
It is from the womb of art that criticism was born.
