aesthetic impulse interested lower saved taught
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.
moving fate thinking
Your life moves in patterns toward things, and things that we achieve finally are part of this mosaic. I just think that we create our own fate.
night bidding auctions
When Robert Benton was doing the movie 'In the Still of the Night,' I'd choreographed the auction scene and supplied the paintings and had a bit part - I was bidding against Meryl Streep.
latin men italian
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.
art school kids
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.
thinking trophies paid
I think very often the price paid for a work is the trophy itself.
No one's ever called me anything but 'Arne.'

I've been told I'm a good midcareer manager.

art world wonderful
The most wonderful time to be in the art world was in the sixties, because it wasn't a business - there was no business of doing art.
dream century 20th-century
I've always been in love with the movies. They're the dreams of the 20th Century.
summer interest painter
It's possible to have more than one interest. I've been a painter and did summer stock.
ice-cream expression icons
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.
art war paris
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.
