Zitat des Tages von Gary Hume:

I do think you get lonelier and lonelier being an artist as you get older.

My mum always liked poetry, and she had pictures on the wall, so there was this visual stuff around.

I do think you get lonelier and lonelier being an artist as you get older.

I love to see a wood full of bluebells. Growing up in the Kent countryside, I have special memories of this brief annual spectacle.

Gary Hume

A painting should be tough; it should have muscle, but I have to find some tenderness in it, too. There has to be that dynamic.

Gary Hume

If I'm feeling desperate, I'll go out image-hunting. I'll go to news agents and stand at the rack flicking through magazines or go to second-hand bookshops. And then, bit by bit, like concrete poetry, I start to realise that I am drawn to particular things, and then I start wondering why that is.

Gary Hume

I lived on nothing for years - squatted where I lived and where I worked, stole electricity, made things from stuff I found in skips, used paper that had been discarded - you do everything you can do to keep going and not have to get a job.

Gary Hume

I don't make political work. I don't make work that criticises the state. I make as human work as I can.

Gary Hume

Sometimes I can see the whole painting from the outset in my mind's eye. But more often than not, that idea doesn't last the duration of the painting. Sometimes it comes out easy, just as I had envisaged. But that is reasonably rare.

Gary Hume

I have to go with what the painting says to me. The painting is always informing me. I'm its servant; it's not mine. I'm doing what it wants.

Gary Hume

I'm probably creative for half an hour a day. The rest of the time, I'm just doing what's necessary to make that creativity visible.

Gary Hume

I think Picasso is more feminine than Matisse.

Gary Hume

My desire to be an artist really came out of being broke and unemployed and incapable of holding a job down. That's what it was driven by for sure.

Gary Hume

The surface is all you get of me.
