Art isn't a product. It's an experience

About This Quote

Art isn't a product. It's an experience. When you go to a museum or a gallery you go to see the art, not to buy it. But the artist is the one who sells his work, not you.

If you make a copy of what you see in a museum then that’s plagiarism. Making art isn't about making money. It's about putting out something that will be on display for years and years and years, and if it's good enough, people will come back again and again to see what you have done.
