Carl Andre
Matter as matter rather than matter as symbol is a conscious political position, essentially Marxist.
Carl Andre
I've never been a representational artist at all. Most artists have been representational. That's when you discover yourself.
Carl Andre
I believe that woman are superior to men.
Carl Andre
New York is dead. It's too expensive.
Carl Andre
Art is the exclusion of the unnecessary.
Carl Andre
Isn't it wonderful to be an artist whose works have mostly been lost?
Carl Andre

Carl Andre
