“When I was a younger man, art was a lonely thing. No galleries, no
collectors, no critics, no money. Yet, it was a golden age, for we all
had nothing to lose and a vision to gain. Today it is not quite the
same. It is a time of tons of verbiage, activity, consumption. Which
condition is better for the world at large I shall not venture to
discuss. But I do know, that many of those who are driven to this life
are desperately searching for those pockets of silence where we can root
and grow. We must all hope we find them.”

“The ideal artist is he who knows everything, feels everything,
experiences everything, and retains his experience in a spirit of wonder
and feeds upon it with creative lust… ”

“The word LOVE got to be the way it is because I have a kind of a passion about symmetry and the dividing of things into equal parts. The word LOVE is that way because those four letters best fit a square if the square is squared by that particular arrangement. And it was really that sort of a necessity for a very compact form that I came upon that arrangement…With the red, blue and green paintings the interaction in the eye is of such a nature that with the slightest change of light the fields automatically interchange, the positive becomes negative and vice versa, with almost a violent effect in the eye.”
LOVE, 1966 by Robert Indiana

“Using the design of the American flag took care of a great deal for me
because I didn’t have to design it. So I went on to similar things like
the targets – things the mind already knows. That gave me room to work
on other levels.”
Flag, 1954-55 by Jasper Johns
