"I'm living my life, not buying a lifestyle"
Barbara Kruger, Artist
"I feel uncomfortable with the term public art, because I'm not sure what it means. If it means what I think it does, then I don't do it. I'm not crazy about categories"
Barbara Kruger, Artist
"Abstraction is real, probably more real than nature"
Josef Albers, Artist
"It is not so for art in appreciation because art is concerned with human behavior. And science is concerned with the behavior of metal or energy. It depends on what the fashion is. Now today it's energy. It's the same soul behind it. The same soul, you see"
Josef Albers, Artist
"I prefer to see with closed eyes"
Josef Albers, Artist
"I'm not a talker. I'm a formulator"

"One doesn't make art for other people, even though I am very concerned with the viewer"
Anish Kapoor, Artist
"I'm an artist who works with pictures and words. Sometimes that stuff ends up in different kinds of sites and contexts which determine what it means and looks like"
Barbara Kruger, Artist
"I try to deal with the complexities of power and social life, but as far as the visual presentation goes, I purposely avoid a high degree of difficulty"
Barbara Kruger, Artist
"Do you know why language manifests itself the way it does in my work? It's because I understand short attention spans"
Barbara Kruger, Artist
"Direct address has been a consistent tactic in my work, regardless of the medium that I'm working in"
Barbara Kruger, Artist
"It may be that the deep necessity of art is the examination of self-deception"
Robert Motherwell, Artist
"One of the best things about folklore and fairy tales is that the best fantasy is what you find right around the corner, in this world. That's where the old stuff came from"
Terri Windling, Artist
"Through her paintings, she breaks all the taboos of the woman's body and of female sexuality"
Diego Rivera, Artist
"Art is much less important than life, but what a poor life without it"
Robert Motherwell, Artist
"I believe art has to take responsibility, but it should not give up being art"
Anselm Kiefer, Artist
"I like Celtic folk music, Native American music, and any kind of early music. There isn't a lot of music that I don't like... except for Show Tunes"
Terri Windling, Artist
"Anthology shows as a whole scare people. The networks can't quite get their heads around it"
Todd McFarlane, Artist

Todd McFarlane, Artist
"I'm a guy who likes to watch something cool, creepy and suspenseful, and there is no show to watch as an adult that would scare me at for even four seconds"
Todd McFarlane, Artist
"Well, I am not interested in the kind of expression that you have when you paint a painting with brush strokes. It's all right, but it's already done and I want to do something new"
Donald Judd, Artist
"Usually, when someone says a thing is too simple, they're saying that certain familiar things aren't there, and they're seeing a couple, maybe, that are left, which they count as a couple, that's all"
Donald Judd, Artist
"And then we moved to New Jersey and I went to the Art Students League"
Donald Judd, Artist
"I am for an art that takes into account the direct effect of the elements as they exist from day to day apart from representation"
Robert Smithson, Artist
"Art history is less explosive than the rest of history, so it sinks faster into the pulverized regions of time"
Robert Smithson, Artist
"The men resent a woman getting any honour in what they consider is essentially their field. Men painters mostly despise women painters. So I have decided to stop squirming, to throw any honour in with Canada and women"
Emily Carr, Artist
"But I think you have to - whatever the environment looks like, it does enter into people's art work one way or another; it's very remote or it isn't. It's remote in my work but it has to have a certain degree of ordinariness"
Donald Judd, Artist
