Cindy+Sherman



"I am always surprised at all the things people read into my photos, but it also amuses me. That may be because I have nothing specific in mind when I'm working. My intentions are neither feminist nor political. I try to put double or multiple meanings into my photos, which might give rise to a greater variety of interpretations... " ~Cindy Sherman (except from an interview with Wilfried Dickhoff)

"I didn't want to make 'high' art; I had no interest in using paint. I wanted to find something that anyone could relate to without knowing about contemporary art. I wasn't thinking in terms of precious prints or archival quality; I didn't want the work to seem like a commodity." ~Cindy Sherman)

"I was supporting myself, but nothing like the guy painters, as I refer to them. I always resented that actually... we were all getting the same amount of press, but they were going gangbusters with sales." ~Cindy Sherman
