  • “We lost favour with some people too – art-lovers, gallerists, museum people – when we supported Kippenberger. He was unserious. They said, ‘Do you want to go with the monkey house or with us? I said I’d rather stay with the monkey house, thank you – or rather, that that was real art.
    Not the stuff you think art is.”
    —Albert Oehlen
