The art gods cooked up something special for James Ensor.

All art comes from other art, and all immigrants come from other places.

When art wins, everyone wins.

I have a soft spot for art that, in terms of subject matter and material, is in bad taste.

Art is changing. Again. Here. Now. Opportunities to witness this are rare, so attend and observe.

Art is good, bad, boring, ugly, useful to us or not.

Recessions are hard on people, but they are not hard on art.

I like that the art world isn't regulated.

The art world is molting - some would say melting. Galleries are closing museums are scaling back.

Almost all institutions own a lot more art than they can ever show, much of it revealing for its timeliness, genius, or sheer weirdness.
