Portraits of Artists 78

The reason I work in so many different ways is because I don't believe in any of them. In the seventies, Dore Ashton wrote a book on Philip Guston. It was titled "Yes, But" – that was the whole title – and I thought this was a really good description of the painterly condition. Every time there's a "yes", there's always that "but" that goes along with it. (Christopher Wool)

The conversation between Christopher Wool and Martin Prinzhorn was published on DVD in Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König in 2017. See purchase details!
