• “the only thing that is not art is inattention.” Marcel Duchamp '

• we don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.' Anaïs Nin 

•  ‘i think all my works, my actions, have no meaning outside what they are. so if you think it's significant, then it's significant.’ Richard Long 

•  'in the end, the creative act is not performed by the artist at all: the spectator brings art to life and thus fulfills the work on the spot.' Detroit Mona - The Jane Show 

•  'I think both art and life are a matter of life and death.' Walter de Maria 

•  'art is art. everything else is everything else.' Ad Reinhardt
