Start with a premise and then somehow invert it.

As soon as I got funny, I killed any majestic intentions in my work.

William Wegman Artist

Dangle something in front of the camera. Get something surprising to be released.

William Wegman Artist

Man Ray takes a lot of pressure off me. It's like having a third person in a conversation; one of you doesn't have to talk all the time.

William Wegman Artist

We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.

Pablo Picasso Painter

I would like to try to understand what is. We know very little, and I am trying to do it by creating analogies. Almost every work of art is an analogy.

Gerhard Richter Visual Artist

The longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically, the more real.

Lucian Freud Painter

Art, not less eloquently than literature, teaches her children to venerate the single eye. Remember Matsys. His representations of miser-life are breathing. A forfeited bond twinkles in the hard smile. But follow him to an altar-piece. His Apostle has caught a stray tint from his usurer. Features of exquisite beauty are seen and loved; but the old nature of avarice frets under the glow of devotion. Pathos staggers on the edge of farce.

Robert Aris Willmott Author

Freedom of expression is a very essential condition for me to make any art. Also, it is an essential value for my life. I have to protect this right and also to fight for the possibility.

Ai Weiwei Contemporary Artist

Diversity of opinion about a work of art shows that the work is new, complex, and vital.

Oscar Wilde Writer
