“I like what I see now in China, but I think the Japanese are a step ahead into craziness and weirdness. I go to galleries there that are the size of a New York elevator, and every time I'm surprised by the amazing things I find. I really hope I'll be able to promote some of these artists, to show their work in the West.” ThinkingShowsAbleArtistStepsNew YorkWestSizeChinaGalleryAmazing ThingsElevatorsCrazinessWeirdness Author:Jean Pigozzi
“Things are so busy and so quick, and there’s so much going on, you have to realise the time when you have to take a step back, take a breath and really think back to where you come from. I’m from a very, very rural place. There’s really nobody out there, just roads and farms. I had a long transition to get to where I am now. I moved away when I was young, when I was about 19. I’d literally come from an area with dirt roads and stuff like that, right to the centre of a city of about five million people. It’s been great. I’m based in New York and every day it's amazing.” PeopleThinkingLongYoungStuffCitiesStepsMillionsFiveNew YorkAreasBreathsMovedBusyRealisingFarmsTransitionDirtCentreWhere You ComeDirt Roads Author:Diego Klattenhoff

“The violence in New York feels really mundane and banal to me. Whereas in the privacy of one's own home, say, like the farm I grew up on in Vermont, the kinds of things that can happen seem much more extreme. Maybe because it's more personal. Or maybe because you block out the things that happen in the city. But it's like seeing things born, live, die, fall apart, and start over again, without any intermediary clean-up steps from some corporate organization.” FeelsKindHomeSeemsHappensDiesFallBornCitiesStepsViolenceSeeingNew YorkGrewGrew UpOrganizationCleanExtremesBlockCorporatePrivacyFarmsFalling ApartStarting OverMundaneVermont Author:Elizabeth Neel
“You never know what you're in for when you take a role. When you're reading the script, you're in some café in New York and you're loving life and it sounds great because it's like reading a book.

“Some friends of mine in the class ahead of me in college were auditioning for graduate school in New York, and then a few of them got into Juilliard, and it sort of opened my eyes.
