"In societies where modern conditions of production prevail, all of life presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles. Everything that was directly lived has moved away into a representation."

quotesMichel Houellebecq
"Those who love life do not read. Nor do they go to the movies, actually. No matter what might be said, access to the artistic universe is more or less entirely the preserve of those who are a little fed up with the world."
Viktor & Rolf
"We think avant-garde is a word that doesn't exist anymore. What is at the forefront today is mainstream tomorrow, so the only thing we can do is grow at our own speed and claim our own space."
Anthony Keyeux aka Hypo
"I don't like videos with live electronic music, I don't like mixing arts. I think it's just something to avoid people getting bored. Maybe it is boring, 'the guy on stage behind his laptop'. And if it is boring you go back home or go and have a drink. I don't expect you to listen religiously."
Daniël van der Velden
"Information overload is better understood when we see it as nature not as culture."
Rafaël Rozendaal
"I like homeless people in general but LA bums are top of the line. They have style and grace and humour. One bum was wearing about a hundred different neck ties. Another one wore wrist bands all over his arms and legs. This other one wore a t-shirt that said 'ZIP ZERO ZILCH' and another one wore a t-shirt with a drawing of a t-shirt."
Jop van Bennekom & Gert Jonkers
"However quietly or extravagantly delivered, style is all about making a difference, about the will to stand out. It's time to be FANTASTIC."
Bless
"Greedy and/or poor Bless clients should invest immediately since we decided to turn the rules of the market around. It won't get cheaper, but more expensive from week to week. The initial prices are calculated as fair as possible, late season customers are invited to cover our storage costs."
Jan St Werner
"I think it's good to make a new mark and create a situation where we can reconsider traditions, rather then only repeating them."
