I wanted things to be real conversational, so I wrote stuff in that tone. I'm always listening to people, what they say and how they say it. So I had lots of material to work with.

There's a moment of recognition. It's that white-light kind of stuff that just "works." I love that. And you know it when it happens, whether it's a movie, music, a building, a book.

Of course there are different ways of visually representing that stuff. But please!

I'm playing around with the conventions of commemorative statuary - the whole larger-than-life, pedestal thing.

Stuff about going to work, feeling good, feeling bad, being in love, etc.

I want the whole effect to be both compelling and funny. And using these well-known proper names connects to the show at Mary's, which also focuses on proper names as well as iconography.

I'd have to say that "stature" is an extraordinarily fugitive and transient sort of thing, which is ruled by taste and drama and the whimsy of history.

I've always hated cartoons and animation, but this stuff is brilliant. The writing on "The Simpsons" and on "King of the Hill" is just so quick and so good.

You know, one of the only times I ever wrote about art was the obituary of Warhol that I did for the Village Voice.

As with the Princess Di crash, which sent the media on the most insane feeding frenzy. From the moment of the crash, the pornography of sentiment never let up.

I've been very lucky. Also it's really expensive to make work. It took me years to save enough money to make this show. People don't even think about that.

If most American cities are about the consumption of culture, Los Angeles and New York are about the production of culture - not only national culture but global culture.

When the art market crashed at the end of the '80s and works were suddenly selling for less, there were artists who took this personally.

I started writing poetry and did readings for a few years in the early '70s. I was also making large painted and stitched objects which were very labor-intensive.

They didn't see that we're part of a speculative construct which needs art stars and their output but is also at the whim of the larger economic picture.

I try to deal with the complexities of power and social life, but as far as the visual presentation goes I purposely avoid a high degree of difficulty.

I've always thought that it's good to watch the news to find out what everybody else is looking at and believing, if only because that's how consensus is constructed.

Direct address has been a consistent tactic in my work, regardless of the medium that I'm working in.

I think I developed language skills to deal with threat. It's the girl thing to do-you know, instead of pulling out a gun.

What makes the production of my work so expensive? The whole installation thing - the construction, the objects, the technology. It really adds up.
