Art Quotes
“It's high time for the art world to admit that the avant-garde is dead. It was killed by my hero, Andy Warhol, who incorporated into his art all the gaudy commercial imagery of capitalism (like Campbell's soup cans) that most artists had stubbornly scorned.”
“I can't bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.”
-- David Herbert Lawrence
“Every man should follow the bent of his nature in art and letters, always provided that he does not offend against the rules of morality and good taste.”
-- Thomas Edward Brown
“There are neither good nor bad subjects. From the point of view of pure Art, you could almost establish it as an axiom that the subject is irrelevant, style itself being an absolute manner of seeing things.”
-- Gustave Flaubert
