“Art is difficult, it’s not entertainment. There are only a few people who can say something about art – it’s very restricted. When I see a new artist I give myself a lot of time to reflect and decide whether it’s art or not. Buying art is not understanding art.”
“Back then the alchemist sped up this process with magical means. That was called magic. I as an artist don’t do anything differently. I only accelerate the transformation that is already present in things. That is magic, as I understand it.”
Anselm Kiefer
