«[…] I believed in the stregth and value of his unique practice, and I figured that any collaboration should begin by acknowledging the richness and complexity of the environment in which it had emerged.» (p. !17!)
«DM When you said to me that you wanted to start a gallery, where did that idea come from, and what did you imagine that a gallery would be?
TK A gallery is the kinda place that I wanna be in. When we have a gallery, I can see the people who like artwork and I can have conversations with people who like art. Because I think people who like art have art-like minds –in their language, their speaking– so I’d like to talk to people who like art. When I have a gallery I’m gonna have a serving area too, and have some tea and stuff, and listen to music, and talk about art. And also commercially, we can sell artwork and have a feeling of achievement. So we can run the art gallery as a business, also.» (p. 19)
«[…] I often describe what we do as an experimental collaboration, a term that is deliberately open-ended. If a single word can be used to describe my approach, perhaps it has been one of amplification.» (p. 33)
