Billy Al Bengston Quotes

We believed that there’s no such thing as good art or bad art. Art is art. If it’s bad, it’s something else. It was a much, much harder line in the 50s and 60s than it is now, because the idea of art education didn’t exist - they didn’t have a fine arts program when I was a kid Picture Quote #1

For me, the heyday was in 1959. It was before the Ferus Gallery moved across the street, in the days when Ed Kienholz and Walter Hopps ran it. At that time, art was taken very seriously in terms of being an artist, and not as a profession Picture Quote #1
