(speaking on how things should be designed)

Pollock is the quintessential Art Cowboy

— PBS Special

As an artist I’d choose the thing that’s beautiful more than the one that’s true.

— Laurie Anderson

(sometimes beauty is the only kind of truth that matters)

Modern art is a disaster area. Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little.

– Banksy
