Quotes by Hilton Kramer (?)

“The more minimal the art, the more maximum the explanation. ”

“It was all so long ago and Stalin doesn't matter any more. Stalin lost his chic before you were born. Sex is always chic.”

“Postmodernism is a very bogus term. I think it mostly applies to kitsch. I don't know of a single important artist who would ever even allow the term 'postmodern artist.' It's a creation of arts journalists. To me, it's a polite way of talking about failed art.”
― Hilton Kramer
