More quotes by Anish Kapoor

Anish Kapoor
Re-investing in one's own little moments of insight is very important
Anish Kapoor

Anish Kapoor
I, in the end, make art for myself.

Anish Kapoor
If one is talking about sculpture then scale and skin is everything.
Anish Kapoor
I feel the symbolic world is the nub of a problem for an artist
Anish Kapoor
I think I understand something about space. I think the job of a sculptor is spatial as much as it is to do with form.
Anish Kapoor
Sculpture occupies the same space as your body.
Anish Kapoor
It is important that artists are not outside the equation, we don't stand on the sidelines. Artists are part of the story of a response, we cannot stand aside and let others make the response.
Anish Kapoor
