I'm very careful not to have ideas, because they're inaccurate.

Art is the concrete representation of our most subtle feelings.

My paintings are not about what is seen. They are about what is known forever in the mind.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.

He drove his kind of realism at me so hard I bounced right into nonobjective painting.

New York being what it is, our museums are vertical, not horizontal. That means the stumbling blocks to architectural clarity are unavoidable - but certainly surmountable.
