“A saboteur in the house of art and a comedienne in the house of art theory, Lawler has spent three decades documenting the secret life of art.

-- Stanley Kubrick
“It ought to be illegal for an artist to marry. If the artist must marry let him find someone more interested in art, or his art, or the artist part of him, than in him. After which let them take tea together three times a week.”
-- Ezra Pound
