One of the great currents in ...

One of the great currents in the contemporary experience of art is that it seems to come out of the experience of the author.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

One does not set out with the idea that I've just had a great idea and now I'm going to go and carry it out. Almost all art that's made like that doesn't go anywhere.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

One cannot set out to make a ...

One cannot set out to make a work that's spiritual. What is a contemporary iconography for the spiritual? Is it some fuzzy space?

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

A work will only have deep resonance if the kind of darkness I can generate is something that is resident in me already.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

The eye is a very quick instrument, much quicker than the ear. The eye gets it immediately.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

One does afford oneself the luxury to come into the studio and all day, every day, spend one's life making aesthetic propositions. What an immense luxury

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

I'm not necessarily intereste...

I'm not necessarily interested in being the best Indian artist. I want to be the best artist I can be. That's enough of a declaration of intent.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

What interests me is the sense of the darkness that we carry within us, the darkness that's akin to one of the principal subjects of the sublime - terror

I feel the symbolic world is the nub of a problem for an artist

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

The whole point of being an artist is to have no agenda. To say, you know, I don't know what I am going to do tomorrow, I don't know what it's going to look like, and I'm going to have a go at it.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

It is important that artists ...

It is important that artists are not outside the equation, we don't stand on the sidelines. Artists are part of the story of a response, we cannot stand aside and let others make the response.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

If sculpture can really deal ...

If sculpture can really deal with the body, because we all inhabit ourselves, and if sculpture can really do that, which it is supposed to be able to do, and through it ask questions, philosophical questions, about being, I think these are all things we work on, all of us in our different ways, so perhaps somewhere in there, there are moments where dumb objects can speak.

You know that day after day of, Oh God what am I going to do with myself feeling? The fear of the emptiness that it implies keeps me going

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

I've always felt that if one was going to take seriously this vocation as an artist, you have to get beyond that decorative facade

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

My first show sold within the first 3 minutes, and I came back to the studio and spent the next two and a half years making almost nothing

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

Being an artist is a very long game. It is not a 10-year game. I hope I'll be around making art when I'm 80.

Anish Kapoor 82 quotes

The work itself has a complete circle of meaning and counterpoint. And without your involvement as a viewer, there is no story.

Re-investing in one's own little moments of insight is very important.

The eye is a very quick instrument, much quicker than the ear. The eye gets it immediately

You know that day after day of, Oh God what am I going to do with myself feeling? The fear of the emptiness that it implies keeps me going.
