मैं खुद को एक पोस्ट-पॉप कलाकार के रूप में जाने जाना पसंद करूँगा, लेकिन सिर्फ आँखों को सुकून देने के लिए, मुझे हर पेंटिंग में पाँच या छह अलग-अलग शैलियाँ रखना बहुत पसंद है।
I'd love to be considered a post-pop artist, but I love to have five or six different styles in every painting, just for the pleasure of the eye.

आजकल चीज़ें बहुत जल्दी भुला दी जाती हैं। भले ही 1,000 लोग कत्ल कर दिए जाएं, अगले ही दिन आप भूल जाते हैं। हर दिन नई खबर आनी चाहिए।
Things are forgotten so fast today. Even if 1,000 people are slaughtered, the next day you forget. There has to be new news every day.

मैं अपने कोलाज कभी नहीं बेचना चाहता था। मुझे लगता था कि यह एक बहुत ही निजी चीज़ है, इसलिए मैंने कोलाज अपने पास ही रखे। फिर, अंत में, वेनिस में पिनोट कलेक्शन में मेरा एक बड़ा कोलाज था और [सेंटर] पॉम्पिडौ के निदेशक ने कहा, "क्या आपने साठ के दशक में इस तरह के बड़े कोलाज बनाए थे?" मैंने कहा हाँ, तो वह मेरे स्टूडियो में आए और बोले, "चलो पॉम्पिडौ में एक प्रदर्शनी करते हैं।"
The collages I never wanted to sell. I thought it was a very private thing, so I kept the collages. Then, in the end, I had a big collage in the Pinault Collection in Venice and the director of the [Centre] Pompidou said, "Did you make big collages like this in the '60s?" I said yes, so he came to the studio and said, "Let's make an exhibition in the Pompidou."

मैं बहुत भाग्यशाली रहा हूँ, मैंने पुरस्कार जीते हैं और यहाँ तक कि लॉटरी भी जीती है।
I have been very lucky, I have won prizes and I've even won the lottery.

हर पाँच, छः, सात, आठ, दस साल में मैं अपनी कृतियों की एक पूरी सूची (रेजॉने) तैयार करता हूँ। जब यह किताब में छप जाती है, तो बात खत्म।
Every five, six, seven, eight, 10 years I do a raisonné. When it's printed in the book, it's finished.

मैं अक्सर किसी राजनीतिक विषय पर काम करता हूँ, और मेरे लिए पेंटिंग तब तक पूरी नहीं होती जब तक कि वे छप न जाएं।
I work on a political subject quite often, and the paintings, for me, are not finished until they're printed.

[कुछ लोग] अपना काम इंटरनेट पर डालते हैं और रोज चेक करते हैं कि कितने लोगों ने देखा, कितने लोगों ने संपर्क किया, लेकिन मेरे पास इंटरनेट नहीं है, मेरे पास मोबाइल फोन नहीं है, मेरे पास फैक्स नहीं है, मेरे पास ईमेल नहीं है। मेरे पास बस पुराने ज़माने का टेलीफोन और खत हैं।
[Some people] put their work on the internet and check every day how many people look, how many people made contact, but I don't have internet, I don't have a hand-phone, I don't have fax, I don't have email. I just have old-fashioned telephone and letters.

वहाँ बहुत कुछ चल रहा था। मुझे [रॉबर्ट] रॉसेंबर्ग के स्टूडियो में हुआ एक बहुत ही दिलचस्प रात का खाना याद है। उन्होंने सिडनी जॅнис, लिओ कास्टेली और एक अन्य बड़े गैलरी वाले को हम कलाकारों को मेज पर परोसने के लिए मना लिया था। इसलिए वे वेटर की पोशाक में थे, हम मेज पर बैठे थे, और उन्हें केवल कॉन्येक् के लिए मेज के अंत में बैठने की अनुमति थी। आज के समय में यह मुमकिन नहीं है।
There was so much going on. I remember a very interesting dinner in the studio of [Robert] Rauschenberg. He had convinced Sidney Janis, Leo Castelli, and a third big gallery man to serve us, the artists, at the table. So they were dressed up as waiters, we were sitting at the table, and they were only allowed to sit down at the end of the table for the cognac. This is not possible now.

मैं वॉल स्ट्रीट के पास फुल््टन स्ट्रीट पर एक बहुत बड़े स्टूडियो में रहता था - शौचालय तक जाने के लिए मुझे साइकिल की ज़रूरत पड़ती थी, जो दो सड़कों के बीच लगभग आधा मील की दूरी पर था।
I lived on Fulton Street in an enormous studio - I needed a bicycle to get to the toilet, about half a mile between two streets - next to Wall Street.

गैलेरी पेरोटिन की प्रदर्शनी में, उनके पास सारायेवो वाली पेंटिंग है - मुझे लगता है कि पोल पॉट और अन्य लोगों की इस कहानी को सामने लाना बहुत अच्छा है, सभी तानाशाहों की नहीं बल्कि उनमें से अधिकांश की।
In the exhibition at Galerie Perrotin, they have the Sarajevo painting - I think it's very good to nail down this story of Pol Pot and other people, not all dictators but most of them.

न्यू यॉर्क के बारे में, पुराने दिनों के बारे में, खासकर साठ के दशक के बारे में मेरी बहुत प्यारी यादें हैं।
I have very warm memories about New York, about the old times, mostly the '60s.
