Michael Heizer Quotes

Landscape to me is a planar thing, just a view. Environment is everything down to the ecosystem. Big difference Picture Quote #1

The trouble is, once you say something about a source, then you’ve pegged it down, and so now I’m reluctant to say anything. If I say I developed 50 different shapes from Mississippian tumuli, that doesn’t mean they’re copies of tumuli - I’m not ripping off those shapes Picture Quote #1

A strong work of art really leaves people speechless. They feel a little angry because they don’t understand it Picture Quote #1

I wasn’t political enough to write articles about myself or go to cocktail parties, meaning that not only has my art been pirated and my intellectual property rights stolen, but my work has been misrepresented Picture Quote #1

I wasn’t an academic looking in books for ideas. But I educated myself about historical work that was similar to mine, to provide a frame of reference that wasn’t the usual frame of reference of the New York art world and Europe Picture Quote #1

The size thing is not some gimmick or attention-getting trick but a genuine undercurrent of the work. Frank Gehry for instance likes to imagine his buildings as sculptures. I like to imagine my sculptures as architectural Picture Quote #1

I make static art, not dynamic art. That’s what I do Picture Quote #1

I wasn’t raised to be into promoting myself Picture Quote #1

Earth is the material with the most potential because it is the original source material Picture Quote #1

The type of work I like is pure and simple and profound Picture Quote #1

I think size is the most unused quotient in the sculptor’s repertoire because it requires lots of commitment and time. To me it’s the best tool. With size you get space and atmosphere: atmosphere becomes volume. You stand in the shape, in the zone Picture Quote #1
