When you think about Dada and the great moments in Modern Art, it's always the sense of when you're not sure that art is most likely to be occurring.

Art cannot be modern. Art is primordially eternal.

I have never been against new art as such; some of it is good, much is crap, most is somewhere in between.

You can understand nothing about art, particularly modern art, if you do not understand that imagination is a value in itself.

Modern art has to be what is called ‘intense.’ it is not easy to define being intense; but, roughly speaking, it means saying only one thing at a time, and saying it wrong.

In its most limited sense, modern, art would seem to concern itself only with the technical innovations of the period.
