Pop Art Is Industrial Painting.

My Work Isn't About Form. It's About Seeing. I'm Excited About Seeing Things, And I'm Interested In The Way I Think Other People See Things.

I Was At Rutgers University, And That Was A Center For Fluxus In A Way. But It Wasn't What I Was Interested In. All Of It Had An Impact - As Did Happenings - Because I Could See That Art Was Changing From Expressionism, Which I Was Doing At The Time, Or Thought I Was Doing. But It Wasn't The Direction I Really Wanted To Go.

In America The Biggest Is The Best.

We Like To Think Of Industrialization As Being Despicable. I Don't Really Know What To Make Of It. There’s Something Terribly Brittle About It. I Suppose I Would Still Prefer To Sit Under A Tree With A Picnic Basket Rather Than Under A Gas Pump, But Signs And Comic Strips Are Interesting As Subject Matter. There Are Certain Things That Are Usable, Forceful, And Vital About Commercial Art. We're Using Those Things – But We're Not Really Advocating Stupidity, International Teenagerism, And Terrorism.

Pop Art Looks Out Into The World. It Doesnt Look Like A Painting Of Something, It Looks Like The Thing Itself.
