I like to believe that rather than destroy icons, I make new ones.
Andres Serrano
Image
There's nothing wrong with provocative art work: I even look forward to the day when I can take pictures which will disturb even me.
Andres Serrano
Image
I have always felt that my work is religious, not sacrilegious.
Andres Serrano

I like going to Church for aesthetic reasons, rather than spiritual ones.
