  • “Something is beautiful if it is honest. If you do an engaged piece of work, which is sincere, the concept of beauty meets the concept of truth. So no illusive harmony. I try to reach people who strive for truth, for identity. Although these conceptions are incredibly worn out, one must try to find the way back to these simple conceptions."
    —Jörg Immendorf
