"Gee, when you walk around Italy, all over the walls
no matter where you go, there’s in chalk or paint,
there’s all these images scribbled on everything

"I wanted to use an object that was not an object,
and yet presented itself as an object, as a means
of probing the under-structure of painting…
to reach for the essence."

"When I’m painting, I often become very involved
with these different personalities that come about.
If I’m to sit down and start to draw a figure, I
become engaged with these different personalities,
these different spirits. […] It’s an automatic process
of a personality that comes from the motion of my
hand and from my imagination. I like the format of
the portrait. There’s this kind of singular
expression, maybe, say, a facial expression,
that becomes the focus of the work."
(Spencer Sweeney)

"I called them ‘Shadows’ because they are based on a photo
of a shadow in my office. […] Someone asked me if they were art
and I said no. You see, the opening party had disco.
I guess that makes them disco décor."
(Andy Warhol)

"There was a curious effect on the gallery; it became
the storage room of an A&P. And the A&P became
an art gallery – one found oneself avoiding
the cartons as though they had suddenly
become valuable."
(Lawrence Campbell)
