As For A Picture, If It Isn't

Art Is Too Serious To Be Taken Seriously.

Painting Cannot Be The Only Activity Of A Mature Artist.

I Want To Emphasize The Idea Of Black As Intellectuality And Conventionality.

I Like The Idea Of The Museum World And The University-academic Situation Where Artists Talk To Each Other Or Where Artists Or Art Students Study With Artists.

As An Artist I Would Like To Eliminate The Symbolic Pretty Much, For Black Is Interesting Not As A Color But As A Non-color And As The Absence Of Color.
