“I realize that protest paintings are not exactly in vogue, but I've done many.”

“'LOVE' bit me. It was a marvelous idea, but it was also a terrible mistake. It became too popular; it became too popular.”

“When I was a kid, my mother used to drive my father to work in Indianapolis, and I would see, practically every day of my young life, a huge Phillips 66 sign.

“What the mass media offers is not popular art, but entertainment which is intended to be consumed like food, forgotten, and replaced by a new dish.”

“The greatness of art is not to find what is common but what is unique.”

“Art hurts. Art urges voyages - and it is easier to stay at home.”
