“About the time I was 7, I got really into black-exploitation films, so...” — Mark Bradford Quote

“About the time I was 7, I got really into black-exploitation films, so I made my own Wonder Woman, but I made her black.”

“I don't know why we, in the art world, cannot unpack things and sort of make hybrid notions of a practice. We're very rigid. It's funny, though; in music, we have no problem sampling, mixing and remixing. But in the art world, why can't we take little parts of history and mix it together?”

“When I was thirteen, I was in a supermarket with my mother, and for no reason at all, I picked up a science-fiction book at the checkout stand and started reading it. I couldn't believe I was doing that, actually reading a book. And, man, it opened up a whole new thing. Reading became the sparkplug of my imagination.”

“I'd love to play Wonder Woman.”

“When I did 'Wonder Woman,' I was especially proud that I had both a very large straight female and gay male following.”

“Wonder Woman is such an amazing character.”
