More quotes by Nan Goldin
I also photographed Maggie Cheung - but these didn't develop into a friendship either.

[I influenced by ]the work of early [Michelangelo] Antonioni, Orson Welles and [Carlo] Pasolini, I love [Nicolas Jack] Roeg's film Performance.

The complete disregard for the camera's presence indicates its complete saturation in their lives. The subject neither notices nor seems to care that someone has been invited into their private moment.

I've got really prolific since I moved to Paris where I am living permanently, for the rest of my life, until I find another idea. I have really close women friends here: Valerie, Raymonde, not Joana so much, Maria Schneider, who was always a real heroine of mine who and has now become a close friend.
Nan Goldin
I don't think of Maria Schneider like idol anymore, because I worshipped her when I was young.

I like Stella [McCartney] a lot - she's a very open and warm person. I don't particularly want to know about her background.

When I put my big retrospective together in '96 [for the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York], I saw that there were all these pictures of people inside looking out. All these pictures of women in water and mirrors. I don't know what it means.
Nan Goldin
I remember so many girls when I was growing up who hated the way they looked.

I know somewhat about Kate [Moss who featured in the Vogue spread]. I always thought that Kate's look had come from my old friend Siobhan Liddell and some of her friends because they dressed like that about ten years ago. Unconsciously, and right after that, that whole look sort of came out.
Nan Goldin
I have very healthy strong relationships with women.
Nan Goldin
The things that I look at include Renaissance art. I'm obsessed with churches and paintings of saints.
Nan Goldin
I knew from a very early age, that what I saw on tv had nothing to do with real life. So I wanted to make a record of real life. That included having a camera with me at all times.
Nan Goldin
The main thing that I want to say is that I don't think women are at their most beautiful in their adolescence or in their early 20s.
Nan Goldin
That's where I got the idea to paint the walls of the gallery with varied colours [at the Whitechapel show]. I tried to figure out how all these Renaissance paintings manage to work together.
Nan Goldin
I have no ambivalence about myself wearing make-up or designer clothes but I have an enormous ambivalence about what the fashion world has done to women.
Nan Goldin
In Paris now, when I walk into stores and the shopgirls literally say to me every time, We don't have anything in your size.
Nan Goldin
Gena Rowlands is fabulous.
Nan Goldin
My life is more important. At this point in my life I'm alone. I don't think about it a lot.
Nan Goldin
I always thought if I photographed anyone or anything enough, I would never lose the person, I would never lose the memory, I would never lose the place. But the pictures show me how much I've lost.
Nan Goldin
I did [heroin] maybe when I was 18 but I got over that pretty quickly.
