Famous Quotes

View all 2 quotes

“Exhibitions are precisely what weshouldn’t trust, because they are so seductive. We go into a room that we can only walk through in a certain way, and there’s a certain lighting scheme, and it might smell a certain way. Whereas when we read something on a blog, we do that in our own home, in the conditions that we have chosen, and we can determine how our body is situated. We just can’t do those things in an exhibition.””

Four Conversations on the Architecture of Discourse

“The purpose of books is not to be read. I buy books not to read them. I own a lot of books. I write books, I collect books, I think about books, I copy books, I pay for books – I’m in the book business. But I don’t read books.””
