Quote from Parkett
“He ‘thinks in paint,’ as evidenced by the sheer quantity of works he produces—a phenomenon deliberately displayed in his installations. The picture is not conceived as a closed site, nor as something completed, but merely as one stage in a continuous process of creation.”

Artist Contribution for Parkett 100/101
“I love to think of Parkett the way Franz (West) may have, which is as a sharp collection of images, thoughts, and ideas sitting quietly on a shelf (Franz’s shelf)….Thats the way I experience it. I will always be honored to have been included in Parkett with so many great artists and writers. Its a beautiful collection of books which will be increasingly appreciated for evolving reasons for a long time.”
