Julian Schnabel
In a certain way, my work had set me up to be against lots of things. If there wasn't some sort of sanction for it in the public world, it might have been...it wouldn't have been tolerated, because people don't want things to get shaken up.
Julian Schnabel
I want the paintings to take me or the viewer out somewhere else.
Julian Schnabel
It's nice to see your name in print. It's interesting.
Julian Schnabel
I'm not mannerist. I don't think I'm interested in mannerism. If I ever use it in a way, or if manner is like some kind of product of certain sorts of usage of different kinds of materials, then it's about involution or turning in on that.
Julian Schnabel
