I love Rauschenberg. I love that he created a turning point in visual history that he redefined the idea of beauty that he combined painting sculpture photography and everyday life with such gall and that he was interested in as he put it 'the ability to conceive failure as progress.'
The best way to inspire people to superior performance is to convince them by everything you do and by your everyday attitude that you are wholeheartedly supporting them.
A positive attitude is not going to save you. What it's going to do is everyday between now and the day you die whether that's a short time from now or a long time from now that every day you're going to actually live.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
Surrealism: An archaic term. Formerly an art movement. No longer distinguishable from everyday life.
Art is the most beautiful deception of all. And although people try to incorporate the everyday events of life in it we must hope that it will remain a deception lest it become a utilitarian thing sad as a factory.
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
I've been trying to learn how to not be so conflicted about things like my own anger. I've always had a place in my music for my anger as a way of compensating for not having a mechanism to express it in my everyday life. So I've been trying to be more true to myself and that helps me to chill out a little bit. But politically uh-uh. No.
I'm on an Isabel Marant kick. She does an amazing job of making things that are everyday-wearable but also special and a little bit different. I definitely like that she has a '70s western vibe. There's something that's very fun and vintage in what she's doing.
