ªLike an insane person he builds replicas of rooms and apartments that have been his life.´ªI feel unable or unwilling to speak for my own singular subjective position under my own name, under the rubric that is my own identity.´
ªOf the works themselves it leaves only fragments behind, and communicates itself, like a cipher, only through the blank spaces from which it has disengaged itself.´
ªThe ponderous illusions of solidity and the non-existence of things is what the artist should take for materials.´
ªAnd nobody knows for sure he might show us how to fly.´
ªThe past carries with it a temporal index by which it is referred to redemption.´
ªIs it possible that appropriation, too, is a stutter? R-r-r-ichch- chard P-p-pr-r-rince?´
ªWe walk at night in a circle and are consumed by flame.´
Daniel Birnbaum
