“Fame never interested me. I could have exhibited more of my own works in the 1970s, but I didn't want to. It's sort of like being a child. When you're finished with school, you have only one thing on your mind: to get out and experience life. Did I want to spend all my time working on a painting? No, I wanted to have fun, travel, meet women and live life.” WantMindChildrenWantedSchoolFunMy OwnOne ThingPaintingFameFinishedLive LifeHaving FunMy Time Author:Wolfgang Beltracchi
