Gallery Quotes

The whole world is an art gallery when you’re mindful. There are beautiful things everywhere and they’re free Picture Quote #1

My art is for anybody, it’s for people who wouldn’t go into an art gallery. It’s art for the people Picture Quote #1

He went out with a variety of women, slept with some of them, hated the whole meaningless process. Drinks, dinners, plays and concerts and gallery openings... He grew to despise the rigid formality of dating, missed the easy familiarity of simply being with someone, sharing friendly silences and unforced laughter Picture Quote #1

One curator said he didn’t want my work in his gallery because it was so simple even children understood it. I thought, what a wonderful tribute! Picture Quote #1

Some people’s photography is an art. Mine is not. If they happen to be exhibited in a gallery or a museum, that’s fine. But that’s not why I do them. I’m a gun for hire Picture Quote #1

People see owning a gallery as a way to get rich. I never thought that I could get rich in the art world. I wanted a life in art. I wanted to live with artists. I wanted to make beautiful shows Picture Quote #1

There is more to representing art than selling art. The life of the gallery is dependent on the renewal and refreshment of its artists and dealers. When that stops happening, it’s the end Picture Quote #1

I realized that I could have been in galleries much sooner. I just needed to get past the fear of rejection. I still feel nervous when I approach a new gallery, although it has become more like a job now. The first step on this long road was getting past that initial fear Picture Quote #1

If you’re a baker, making bread, you’re a baker. If you make the best bread in the world, you’re not an artist, but if you bake the bread in the gallery, you’re an artist. So the context makes the difference Picture Quote #1

You know how you feel somebody looking at you, and you turn, and somebody actually is? It’s the same at an art gallery. You’re looking at one portrait, turn around, and there is a work of art directly behind you. Because it’s all energy. Every single thing has energy Picture Quote #1

I’ve been collecting photos for a long time, I mean since I started making money. But what you have had to go through to find a good photo is like a needle in the haystack sometimes. You’ll drive from one gallery to the next gallery to the next gallery. It’s not an easy process. It’s a very ancient model that just hasn’t caught up with the times Picture Quote #1

I used to split my time between writing, music and painting. I would work on a book and then abandon it, start a band, do an album, quit music, then do a gallery show. Eventually I decided to give writing a serious shot Picture Quote #1

At work people are expected to be at the beck and call of employers all the time. You have blackberries and other things, and they just don’t leave you alone. People have less time just to drop into an art gallery Picture Quote #1

In a gallery, there’s an expectation of high prices and a somewhat elitist atmosphere Picture Quote #1

The spectator, as he walks the gallery, will stop, or pass along. To give a general air of grandeur at first view, all trifling, or artful play of little lights, or an attention to a variety of tints is to be avoided; a quietness and simplicity must reign over the whole work, to which a breadth of uniform and simple color will very much contribute Picture Quote #1

I’m not fashionable at all, and the fact that I manage to sell pictures without being fashionable is thanks to my gallery Picture Quote #1

The city’s the best gallery I could imagine. I would never have to make a book and then present it to a gallery and let them decide if my work was nice enough to show it to people. I would control it directly with the public in the streets Picture Quote #1

I am holed up in a small village where I am doing my own work and it feels great. I have a small gallery and not many people find me, but I am happy being left alone and doing what I love Picture Quote #1

I don’t have a favorite place to see art. I like to encounter it anywhere, museum, gallery, home, studio, street... I do prefer to see good art, when I see art, but it doesn’t matter where I see it Picture Quote #1

Somebody will be exhibiting a bunch of bananas in a gallery, and they’ll get me on to talk dirty about it Picture Quote #1

The art business is a rarified business and appeals to an audience capable of spending money on a luxury. Too often the atmosphere in a gallery borders on snobbishness Picture Quote #1

I worked in an art gallery for a few years, doing administrative assistance stuff, and it exposed me to what the whole world of art dealers and the art market was about Picture Quote #1

Art is inspiring. Walking into a gallery, or when the lights go up on a stage; that thrill of getting something that has nothing to do with acquisition Picture Quote #1

I believe that when you go into a gallery or a museum, the most powerful pieces are the ones that don’t have the words in the corner that distract you from the larger piece Picture Quote #1

I love the idea of bringing my work to the general public, not just people who go to gallery openings Picture Quote #1

I’ve noticed a lot of younger artists have less fear of doing different sorts of things, whether it’s various types of music, or gallery artists moving between video and sculpture and drawing Picture Quote #1

The nice thing about the gallery shows is that without having to pay any money you can just go and see it Picture Quote #1

They are at the end of the gallery; retired to their tea and scandal, according to their ancient custom Picture Quote #1

A peculiar virtue in wildlife ethics is that the hunter ordinarily has no gallery to applaud or disapprove of his conduct Picture Quote #1

I learned early in my career, where you get so wrapped up and so excited, that all of a sudden you don’t think. So I worked very hard to keep myself suppressed. And that’s one of the reasons I wasn’t gregarious with the gallery Picture Quote #1
