“The art world is molting - some would say melting. Galleries are closing; museums are scaling back.”

“Think of an abstract painting as very, very low relief - a thing, not a picture.”

“Many say an art dealer running a museum is a 'conflict of interest.' But maybe the art world has lived an artificial or unintentional lie all of these years when it comes to conflicts of interest.”

“To be honest, I think, for me, the power is always with art. The art world clearly couldn't happen without art.”

“In the United States there has been a kind of a structure in the Modern art world. The New York School was nearly a coherent thing-for a minute.”

“I think when you're collecting, the best advice is just 'see see see see.' The more you get used to the nuances of the art world and what people are doing and whose opinion matters, the more you can tune your own collection and know that these are works that do count; these are artists that will be of relevance tomorrow.”
