Art Quotes

My first engagement with any art was music.
Martin Freeman
I love the way I make hip-hop and I refuse to make pop-rap. I don't refuse to make mainstream music, which is why I did a soul record. There was no reason why soul music couldn't get played on the radio and I still wanted to have a relationship with my record label. So, I really enjoyed doing the Strickland Banks album. But there's no point in my trying to release underground hip-hop music on a major label. That part of my talent, or part of my art, had to live somewhere else and feature film was the perfect vehicle for it.
Ben Drew

David Deida
Two is not a winner, and three nobody remembers. What does it take to be number one?
Nelly
What I expect from any work of art is that it surprises me, that it violates my customary valuations of things and offers me other, unexpected ones.
Jean Dubuffet
Art is messy, art is chaos - so you need a system.
Andrew Stanton
A work of art has no importance whatever to society. It is only important to the individual.
Vladimir Nabokov
A portrait, to be a work of art, neither must nor may resemble the sitter... one must paint its atmosphere.

But I am a lover of all kinds of art. And I just can't stick to one thing. I guess I could if I made myself, but I'd always be looking the other way, for other things.
Andre Benjamin
I got alright GCSEs, but I was lost. I didn't know what to do, whether to continue with education, go to uni, go to art school - then again, I was like, 'Maybe I should just go and get a job, start early and make money.'
