Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001617459
That Moorish architecture is all over the place, of course. It affects me everywhere I see it, as it does so many people. But Brand Library was a special place to me, and I know I've paid homage to it many times in my drawings.

I never can pass by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York without thinking of it not as a gallery of living portraits but as a cemetery of tax-deductible wealth.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000204666
Can space break? I mean the space of art galleries. Over the past 100 years, art galleries have gone from looking like Beaux Arts salons to simple storefronts to industrial lofts to the gleaming giant white cubes of Chelsea with their shiny concrete floors.

The skyscraper establishes the block, the block creates the street, the street offers itself to man.

only slightly less magnificent than the neighboring palazzo.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000450451
What is more dramatic, even romantic, than the tumbled towers of lower Manhattan, rising suddenly to the clouds like a magic castle girdled by water? Its very touch of jumbled jaggedness, its towering-sided canyons, are its magnificence.

Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000254391
Venice is the perfect place for a phase of art to die. No other city on earth embraces entropy quite like this magical floating mall.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000899762
But with Celine, she managed to amass a collection of a thousand pieces, each one hand-selected for its historical value and beauty, and then turn her apartment into a masterpiece that you could sit back and enjoy. She wasn't just a collector, she was a curator.

Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001279789
I wanted to improve the suburban office building; to create a great urban space in a suburban environment with all that implies about interaction, collaboration and creativity.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000663368
Many years ago, we were only able to build boxes. Today, architects from all over the world are working with us - Zaha Hadid from London, Gerkan, Marg and Partner from Hamburg, Kengo Kuma from Japan. We brought design and digitalization from abroad to China.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000709717
The skyline in Alfred Hitchcock's 'Rope' is made up: no, you don't get the Waldorf and the Chrysler and the Empire State buildings and a dozen other magnificent structures in one window.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000392027
I've become convinced that Los Angeles is going to become the next contemporary art capital - no other city has more contemporary gallery space than Los Angeles. We've come into our own, finally.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001401786
The giant white cube is now impeding rather than enhancing the rhythms of art. It preprograms a viewer's journey, shifts the emphasis from process to product, and lacks individuality and openness. It's not that art should be seen only in rutty bombed-out environments, but it should seem alive.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000476494
Then, the stunningly white cubes that make up the Getty Museum. It's an architectural masterpiece funded by a venal billionaire's trust, housing third-rate art. Pure L.A.: might makes right and packaging is all. Traffic

42nd Street with its quarter mile of marquees offering porn of all types, colors, sizes, and flavors.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001496108

10 East 53rd Street
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000492540
I can pick out people in this city to follow. I can be in a show at the Museum of Modern Art, my space in the Museum of Modern Art is my mailbox, my mail is delivered there. Whenever I want mail, I have to go through this city to get my mail.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001406889
The implausible, well-nigh-miraculous functioning anarchy that we know as New York is adorned with every excellence of Western art. It is a city of manifold suggestions, which ministers to every ambition, engenders a thousand talents, nurtures ingenuity and experimentation.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001633474
Museums, I love museums.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001757445
MFA programs are to the world of art what gentrification is to your neighborhood.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000360818
I sometimes go and sit there. it is my museum of broken things.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000502900
Good evening, and welcome to a private showing of three paintings, displayed here for the first time. Each is a collectors' item in its own way - not because of any special artistic quality, but because each captures on a canvas, and suspends in time and space, a frozen moment of a nightmare.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001221059
The Whitney is a museum that has a great rapport with younger artists and the community.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000999331

Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001624090
By night the skyscraper looms in the smoke and the stars and has a soul.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001247330
Marc Jacobs is full of creative people and Louis Vuitton is again a name on the door, a name that has existed for many years but I'm a collaborator there and I bring in other people, other artists and I work with a great creative design team.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000886850
Someday my paintings will be hanging in the Louvre. [Vincent Van Gogh]
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000588210
Downtown Toronto is a very good place to talk about the neutrality of modernist architecture. I'm sure this kind of box-building was interesting in the Twenties, Thirties and Forties, but I think it's absolutely ridiculous to build like this in 2013.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000958965
I have admired David Bromley's work for years. He possesses such a wild and vivid imagination and really sees the beauty in everything.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000707692
Skyline reveals a city's purpose and character. Oxford had its dreaming spires; Manhattan its glittering towers; Edinburgh its eccentric spikes.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001770374
The terrifying and edible beauty of Art Nouveau architecture.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001340351
The privilege I've had as a curator is not just the discovery of new works ... but what I've discovered about myself and what I can offer in the space of an exhibition - to talk about beauty, to talk about power, to talk about ourselves, and to talk and speak to each other.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000204678
The art galleries of Paris contain the finest collection of frames I ever saw.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001146849
Forty Wall Street is probably the most beautiful tower in New York.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001229179
Sometimes Peggy herself would sell tickets to her museum, and if tourists asked her if Mrs. Guggenheim was still alive, she'd assure them she wasn't.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000221024
The best thing about my apartment is that it looks over Oscar de la Renta and all the shops.

A painting is worth a thousand confused art-gallery visitors.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001602798
I want people to get inspired by public space - their space. People tend to forget about it because they do the daily thing, but putting up these sculptures breaks the routine.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001193336
Warren Street was at the high end of the New Romantic scene. They were mostly college art students and people who knew top designers.

exhibition. Lake Eden.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001777664
Often the art in New York is related to the buildings, to grandiose things.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001268150
. . . my underlying, not-so-hidden agenda is to help enhance and enrich the encounter of the museum-goer with enduring objects, in a time when we all seem to be assailed by random noise and flickering images.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001469268
I saw Joseph Cornell's lyrical work for the first time at the Museum of Modern Art in the late seventies and have internalized many of his boxes.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000204671
The galleries are simply corporations in the art world - "Here's a million dollars for this latest piece of crap" - but I'm not about to go along with the gallery system.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001456618
But I'm interested in the Barnes Collection in Philadelphia. I hear there are some of the worst Matisses there. I like seeing bad art by good artists. It's inspiring. I'm able to identify with them. It makes them real.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001788502
Long-time professor of architecture at the University of California, Berkeley, Chris Alexander
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000494299
Every time a student walks past a really urgent, expressive piece of architecture that belongs to his college, it can help reassure him that he does have that mind, does have that soul.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001113707
Everywhere you walk, every place you go is full of art, explicit or hidden! If you can see them, you will be the richest art collector and your memory will be the richest art gallery!

I have a long history with Soho: even when I was at art college, I came down to Soho to work in the summer.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001565126
A walk down 14th street is more amazing than any masterpiece of art.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000623622
Museums are custodians of epiphanies, and these epiphanies enter the central nervous system and deep recesses of the mind.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001313832
But if I had to choose a single destination where I'd be held captive for the rest of my time in New York, I'd choose the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000527916
On the ridge where the great artist moves forward, every step is an adventure, an extreme risk. In that risk, however, and only there, lays the freedom of Art.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001533437
What I am out to do is make sure that the Met continues to be the most exciting encyclopedic museum in the world. I want to sustain the vibrancy that makes it exciting to work here, that makes it exciting for visitors. The art remains central.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001808645
A lot of our insights are based on the ways in which people spend time at museums. They're curious, open, interested, and engaging. They want to express themselves and see their own identity refracted through the museum's.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000492539
The distinction between a gallery and a museum is enormous. The gallery is about looking at a thing of beauty; the purpose of the activity is an aesthetic response. The museum is actually about the object that lets you get into somebody else's life.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000825621
Due to the failure of politics, which has become a process of middle-management, art has become one of the last open spaces to question core beliefs and to design a viable future. Art becomes an open space where we can ask fundamental questions about ourselves.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000352326
The greatest products of architecture are less the works of individuals than of society; rather the offspring of a nation's effort, than the inspired flash of a man of genius ...
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000625853
I'm very interested in the idea of unusual museums, ones that are not necessarily contemporary art museums - more like historical collections or house museums.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001044960
In a cement park across the street is this giant sculpture. It is a giant umbrella frame lying on its side. It's green. Stand under it, during a rainstorm, you'll still get wet - that's why it's art.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000474792
Museums that aren't perfect are the ones that I love. Museums that aren't overdesigned. I always like to visit the strange, odd museums. In New York, the Frick is absolutely my favorite, favorite place because I like to think that it was someone's home not that long ago.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001210463
A perfect piece of architecture kindles that aimless reverie, which bears the soul we know not whither.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000299167
I can't get over the exciting beauty of New York - the pencil buildings so high and far that the blueness of the sky floats about them; the feeling that one's taxis, and shopping, all go on in the deep canyon-beds of natural erosions rather than in the excrescences of human builders.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000309058
I love the gallery, the arena of representation. It's a commercial world, and morality is based generally around economics, and that's taking place in the art gallery.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001445641
Open spaces sing to my heart
of the art of nature and the nature of art.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000739015
This is no ordinary gallery; a stellar infinity impeccably well-organized to harbor spontaneity.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001537160
A woman's quest in life should be to find the perfect apartment. And I have found the perfect apartment. The perfect apartment is the first floor of the Metropolitan Museum. With a sofa.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000278416
Friday's "Working Lunch" is at The Avenue on St James's Street. It's a bit like eating in an art installation, a White-Out affair that tries for a So-Serious NYC feel, but is occupied by Daddy's Girls wearing pashmina's and too many Pin Stripes worn by too many people called Hugo.

Melbourne, where I grew up, is one of the street art capitals of the world. Something about discovering freshly painted walls always fills me with optimism; it's autonomous and democratic, and reminds me that maybe people are paying attention after all.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000847725
That's the place where the books are made, I thought. That's also where Allen Ginsberg offered a friend of mine a Fig Newton outside a deli in the East Village. By the time I first came to New York, I was already half in love.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000204700
There's something pleasing about large, well-lit spaces. I love that dealers are willing to take massive chances in order to give this much room to their artists. Most of all, I love that more galleries showing more art gives more artists a shot.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000877467
I started photographing men in 1964. Fourteen years later I got a Guggenheim, even so no one would publish the male nudes.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 000356867
There are so many things in the world - in the cities - so much to see. Does art need to represent this variety and contribute to its proliferation? Can art be that free? The difficulties begin when you understand what it is that the soul will not permit the hand to make.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001220417
Museums and bookstores should feel, I think, like vacant lots - places where the demands on us are our own demands, where the spirit can find exercise in unsupervised play.
Guggenheim Quotes : pic 001433936
Let architects sing of aesthetics that bring Rich clients in hordes to their knees; Just give me a home, in a great circle dome Where stresses and strains are at ease.
