“I had a total revelation with the feminist moment, with Carolee Scheeman and Marina Abromovic and of course Joan Jonas; that was a big breakthrough with me.

That stuff had a huge impact on me, but other than that, my interest had always been old paintings.” MomentsBigsTogetherCoursesStuffInterestTalkingPaintingHugeImpactFeministBurdenRevelationsGangBreakthrough Author:Ragnar Kjartansson
