by ARTINFO
Published: February 10, 2011

What's the last show that surprised you? George Condo at the New Museum

Why? What took so long?

What's your favorite place to see art? Anywhere other than the Internet

Do you make a living off your art? Yes

What's the most indispensable item in your studio? The windows

Where are you finding ideas for your work these days? The library, the street, the periodicals, conversations, the time between the night and the morning

Do you collect anything? Almost everything

What's the last artwork you purchased? "Conscious B-Side" by Tony Cox

What's the weirdest thing you ever saw happen in a museum or gallery? I've seen some weird decisions regarding cosmetic surgery and some weird financial transactions.

What work(s) of art do you wish you owned? I've always loved Isa Genzken's "Fuck the Bauhaus" series of sculptures from 2000. They really inspired me when I was an art student.

What would you do to get them? They belong in a museum where someone looks after them.

What international art destination do you most want to visit? The Instituto Inhotim in Brazil looks really interesting.
