More quotes by Julian Schnabel
It doesn't matter what I think I am, it matters what I do.
Julian Schnabel
I work with things left over from other things.
Julian Schnabel
The movie [Miral] is not pro-Palestinian. It's about Palestinians. It's a Palestinian story, written by a Palestinian person. I don't know anybody else that could have done that
Julian Schnabel
I've never made a movie to make money. I've never made a painting to make money.
Julian Schnabel
I'm not saying I'm the only Jewish person who cares about Palestinian people, but unfortunately, their voices are not necessarily heard as loudly as they should be.
Julian Schnabel
There's been too much attention on marketing. Can't we just talk about the paintings?
Julian Schnabel
I don't like building, I'm not a carpenter, I don't like constructions particularly and things like that, but placements and the kinds of psychological weight that different materials have is pretty interesting to me.
Julian Schnabel
Some people might think that the paintings are involved with a mythic - not just subject matter - but a certain sort of physical space that the paintings occupy...like personages.
Julian Schnabel
If I hung one of my paintings next to someone else's, I knew mine would kind of pop off the wall.
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
I don't think people are terribly interested in young artists who were doing interesting thing, but I don't think people are terribly interested in young artists.
Julian Schnabel
I think beauty is a feeling that you get after you've had an experience. It's the way you feel about it that is beautiful.
Julian Schnabel
There are certain times you want to be here and there are certain times you want to just go. And when you go, it's usually so exhausting you have to check into a hospital when you come home!
Julian Schnabel
You seem to make different concessions with yourself about what you want to focus on or not, and what you want to pay attention to.
Julian Schnabel
Maybe my work looks a little crazy, a little insane, but I don't really see myself as a crazy artist or a shaman artist.
Julian Schnabel
I think style is a fringe benefit that looks like you made it.
Julian Schnabel
We need to not be scared [of muslim], but understand each other. When you're around these people, you see they have much more in common than their differences.
Julian Schnabel
I think not knowing what to think of your paintings is a good place to be.
Julian Schnabel
Traditionally, photography is supposed to capture an event that has passed but that is not what I'm looking for. Photography brings the past into the present when you look at it...
Julian Schnabel
I think, basically, I'm an abstract artist. I just think that that's not even an issue. I think everything's abstract.
