More quotes by Anish Kapoor

Anish Kapoor
If you get a bad review, you take that in your stride.
Anish Kapoor
I've always felt that if one was going to take seriously this vocation as an artist, you have to get beyond that decorative facade
Anish Kapoor
Work grows out of other work, and there are very few eureka moments
Anish Kapoor
Sculpture occupies the same space as your body.
Anish Kapoor
Red is a colour I've felt very strongly about. Maybe red is a very Indian colour, maybe it's one of those things that I grew up with and recognise at some other level.
Anish Kapoor
Red, of course, is the colour of the interior of our bodies. In a way it's inside out, red.
