Why are art quotes important?

Answer 1

If you don't use quotes in assignments (which I assume may be what you are talking about) then no one can be sure if your information is correct or not. In art terms, it is good to reference the opinions of great thinkers (artists, philosophers) then use them to bounce off your own ideas about art and life.

"What I can’t help but find most interesting, is not only epi(text)s on the internet, but how they have changed from their forbearers of engravings on blocks of stone and old buildings and published books. There is one particular difference that I can see, which I call erasure and replacement, and I will return to it soon.

On the internet (who says we are on it? We could be in, next to, touching?) there are various ways that I have noticed people creating epi(text)s, and I assume this is done without conscious knowledge of what they (the online users) are doing. The most obvious use that comes to mind is the Display Names and Personal Messages (DN and PM) that are created by users of Microsoft Networks (MSN). The use of the words ‘display’ and ‘personal’ is interesting in itself. I consider these to be online epi(text)s because the typical DN is like an online epithet, a name that also can include something about ones personality, and the typical PM is often akin to an online epigram of no more than one line."

Answer 2

My favorite art quotes say something to me about art that is revealing about the artist who said it or about how we think about art. Of course, there are lots that are funny. I keep a journal of them and review them every so often.
