People see owning a gallery as a way to get rich. I never thought that I could get rich in the art world. I wanted a life in art. I wanted to live with artists. I wanted to make beautiful shows.

More quotes by Arne Glimcher
Fairs are beneath the dignity of art. To stand there in a booth and hawk your wares - it is just not how you sell art.
Arne Glimcher
Everything happens through relationships.
Arne Glimcher
I like the idea of a love story between men. There is a great affection between men, which exists much more in ethnic groups: Latin, Italian, Jewish.
Arne Glimcher
As a result of World War II, European artists migrated to America, enlarging the scene and diminishing Paris as the center. America was beginning its dominance of the art world with the emergence of the Abstract Expressionists.
Arne Glimcher
I was an actor as a kid in Boston. Then I went to art school with Brice Marden, the Massachusetts College of Art. So the hybrid of being an actor and artist is a director.
Arne Glimcher
No one's ever called me anything but 'Arne.'

I actually taught perceptual psychology at N.Y.U. when I was younger. I was interested in the aesthetic impulse in lower primates. But what really interested me in Dian Fossey was that she made a difference - she saved the gorillas.
Arne Glimcher
Art is a tool by which society extends its perception.
Arne Glimcher
If Abstract Expression reached for the sublime, Pop turned ordinary imagery into icons. Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol illuminated the transformative power of context and the process of reproduction. Claes Oldenburg's soft ice-cream cones and hamburgers changed sculpture from hard to soft, from stasis to transformation.
Arne Glimcher
It's possible to have more than one interest. I've been a painter and did summer stock.
Arne Glimcher
Elvis Presley's music never meant anything to me. Mambo was the music I loved - it spoke to me.
Arne Glimcher
There is more to representing art than selling art. The life of the gallery is dependent on the renewal and refreshment of its artists and dealers. When that stops happening, it's the end.
Arne Glimcher
I've been told I'm a good midcareer manager.
