game is not about worldly success. The real game is between oneself and the
canvas,
to end up with a canvas that is no less beautiful than the empty canvas is
to begin with."

~ Stacy Schiff

"Art
is a potent social tool. Almost magically, ownership bestows status, turns
nobodies into somebodies
and makes those somebodies look classy and smart or, at the very least, rich.
Yes, art is about ideals and
beauty and all that. But it is also about the power of possession, the sovereignity
of taste. Deep down, it appeals
to the royalist in us all ...art becomes what it may always really be:not
the potentially transformative vision
of romantic lore, but an emblem of preciousness; a badge of attainment; a
collectible to have, hold and marvel at;
an enviable jewel in a fortunate somebody's crown." - Holland
Cotter
