“I've noticed a lot of younger artists have less fear of doing different sorts of things, whether it's various types of music, or gallery artists moving between video and sculpture and drawing.”

“Why not invest in the future of music, instead of building fortresses to preserve its past?”

“Yeah, it's pretty hard not to be completely cynical these days.”

“I think most artists create out of despair. The very nature of creation is not a performing glory on the outside, it's a painful, difficult search within.”

“If it's stage, the two most important artists are the actor and the playwright. If it's film, THE most important person is the director. The director says where the camera goes.”

“Back to the painting of the Sistine Chapel, there's always been run-ins between benefactors and artists.”
