In his own words:
“When
I came to New York in the 70s, it was common not to expect to be able to live
from your art. I had very little idea about galleries or the business side of
the art world. It all seemed pretty distant. When people started paying attention
to my work, it seemed so unlikely that somehow it wasn't so remarkable. I made
my work for a small audience of friends, other artists mostly, and that has not
really changed. At the same time, having shows is a way of seeing if the work
resonates with anyone else. Having that response, something coming back to you
from the way the work is received in the world, can be important for your
development as an artist. But you have to take it with healthy skepticism... I
still spend most days in my studio, alone, and whatever happens flows from
that.”
