Art is basically entertainment.

Even Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci were entertainers. In that way, I am an entertainer and want to make art that is fun.

"Art is the ability to turn one's gaze to the world of oblivion." This is the way in which I understand art at fundamental level.

The value of art is its ability to look into the "world of oblivion" and to find things that are generally unrecognized, forgotten, invisible and impossible to tell.

By putting a border line between life and death, we separate the world of death from our world of life, casting the dead away into the "world of oblivion".

To think about "oblivion" is to think about "what art is".

The artists could be dead, but some of them are not so distant from us, and make us feel as if they are alive with us. Such artists are worth calling "contemporary artists".

I think it is important to be aware that the Internet has replaced the television, and has become a place where the uniformity of human society is accelerated.

When we talk about contemporary art and contemporary artists, we usually imagine artists who are alive. But I feel very uncomfortable about placing a border between living artists and dead artists.

Of course, the process of curating is different from art making. Exhibition-making is a process that involves collaboration with various participating artists.

I put priority on such artists who focus on the world of "oblivion" and who consider placing themselves into the world of "oblivion" as fundamental to their attitude for their expression.

But I didn't even make you work for it. I just jumped you like a cat in heat.

The Western democracy of today is the forerunner of Marxism which without it would not be thinkable. It provides this world plague with the culture in which its germs can spread.

I learned that life will go through changes - up and down and up again. It's what life does.

I want to be one of the top guys in the back end and make sure I keep our team in line and doing the right things in front of me.

I wanted to look sexy and I felt like I was too skinny so I started working out with a trainer trying to build some muscle because I was like this skinny little scrawny girl.

There are 10-20 times more male comics than female comics; it's something to do with the social structure of society.

I am a Slavic musician and it is deeply inside of me.

Poetry is not truth, it is the resurrection of presences.

Allowing dying to be so intensely present enriches both the preciousness of each moment and our detachment from it.
