Some quotes that I find interesting.
Richard Prince: you have to play the picture, you can't play yourself.
Kruger: I am prone to a kind of lascivious optimism. I want to question the notions of heroism and skew the conventions which loiter around depiction.
Yve Lomax as quoted by Tickner: she knocked some metaphors off the table.
Stezaker: What is hidden in that surplus, that excess [of images], is what interested me, because it's clear that it is the tension between the world of excess and the world of everyday reality governed by its rationalist forces
Aragon quoting Ducasse: a maxim does not need to be corrected. It needs to be developed.
Debord and Wolman: Detournement is less effective the more it approaches rational reply.
Duchamp: use a Rembrandt as an ironing board.
Warhol: when you see a gruesome picture over and over again, it doesn't really have any effect
Retort: Empire and "Jihad", two virulent mutations of the Right.
