A work of art when placed in a gallery loses its charge, and becomes a portable object or surface disengaged from the outside world.
As humans we look at things and think about what we've looked at. We treasure it in a kind of private art gallery.
The nice thing about the gallery shows is that without having to pay any money you can just go and see it.
I love to be in front of big galleries
History is a gallery of pictures in which there are few originals and many copies.
You never see what you want to see, forever playing to the gallery.
Culture, like the kingdom of heaven, lies within us, and not in foreign galleries and books.
I just got to hear every note. After I left Birdland, I started working at the Jazz Gallery. In the end, I still couldn't play, but I knew how to listen. I was probably the world's best listener.
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.
As far as my opinion on galleries, I think they are a great thing. I see them as another outlet. I'm sure by now you've figured out that I do my work for everybody to see. That's the whole point.
The gallery in which the reporters sit has become a fourth estate of the realm.

I wanted to be a star, not a gallery mascot.
An attempt to achieve the good by force is like an attempt to provide a man with a picture gallery at the price of cutting out his eyes.
When I showed ‘Black and the Red III’ in Malmö, Sweden, it was a continuum - a band - all around the galleryseeing this huge space in the gallery in Malmö, I just took a deep breath and I put the paper around in a single band. Then I continued along, printing on the wall like a trompe l’oeil to reiterate the images in the work printed on paper that I had push-pinned to the wall.

At 18 I began painting steadily fulltime and at age 20 had my first New York show at the Macbeth Gallery.
I think the art world... is a very small pond, and it's a very inbred pond. They rely on information from an elect elite sect of galleries, primarily in New York.

I find old copies of National Gallery catalogues, which are written in the dryest possible prose, infinitely soothing.
The first piece of art that I ever bought - when I could afford it - was a Warhol sketch from the period when he was just getting out of doing commercial work and more into art. It's a sketch of a young guy's face. I guess the gallery that I bought it from thought I would like it because the young guy kind of looked like James Dean.
An interesting thing happened in 1989, right as I was graduating: the stock market crashed and really changed the landscape of the art world in New York. It made the kind of work I was doing interesting to galleries that wouldn't have normally been interested in it
