THE POWER of CREATIVITY



I doubt everything. I always resist things that are obvious, even though what usually sells is the most obvious stuff. That puts me in an uncomfortable position. the search is to find the true stuff, but also to find how to put it, because a lot of times when you find the true stuff it's not very attractive. It doesn't come out in a very digestible way. And if you're trying to illuminate people, or inspire people, or wake people up to something, you know--and, believe me, I've learned this from other things I've done--you're not going to get very far if you attack people or rub their noses in it. Good artists are always trying to go against something or trying to be innovative in a way that is not obvious. For me, art is about learning and about living with people. It's alive. Collecting is a little bit dead. I never want to repeat myself. I don't see the point of doing a show unless you offer something that is going to mind-boggle the senses. It's very hard. You can't do more than two bad shows in a row, otherwise you are dead. You have to keep the level, the excitement. But being creative every single day is really difficult. The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but -- I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you -- we as a people will get there. Yes, we can. Yes, we did.
