Art Quotes
“Much good art got made while money ruled I like a lot of it, and hardship and poverty aren't virtues. The good news is that, since almost no one will be selling art, artists - especially emerging ones - won't have to think about turning out a consistent style or creating a brand. They'll be able to experiment as much as they want.”

-- David Hockney
“Great art is the outward expression of an inner life in the artist, and this inner life will result in his personal vision of the world.”

“We are all hungry and thirsty for concrete images. Abstract art will have been good for one thing: to restore its exact virginity to figurative art.”
-- Salvador Dali
“Venice is the perfect place for a phase of art to die. No other city on earth embraces entropy quite like this magical floating mall.”
-- Jerry Saltz
