“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
“I used to split my time between writing, music and painting. I would work on a book and then abandon it, start a band, do an album, quit music, then do a gallery show. Eventually I decided to give writing a serious shot.” GivingWritingBookShowsUsedPaintingSeriousBandShotsDecidedAlbumsQuittingMy TimeAbandonSplitsGalleryWriting Music Author:Isaac Marion

Or talked about. Or really examined. It's watering things down.” WayArtMadeShowsBigsAudienceHeardFindingsHappeningsBiggerStatementsStoppingFillingGallery Author:Jerry Saltz
“The city's the best gallery I could imagine. I would never have to make a book and then present it to a gallery and let them decide if my work was nice enough to show it to people. I would control it directly with the public in the streets.” PeopleIfsBookEnoughShowsInspirationMotivationCitiesNiceImagineStreetsGallery Author:JR
