I Don't Spend A Lot Of Time

Being A Fan Of Authentic Dada, I Find Today's Art - What I Call 'bankers' Dada' - Mind-numbingly Dull. The Most Challenging Work I've Seen Of Late Is By The British Art Resistance. Their Document, 'a Call For Heroes In An Age Of Cowards', Is Apt In These Days Of Witless Chancers.

Before 1999, Tracey Emin And Sarah Lucas Offered To Get Me Exhibitions, But Joining The Stuckists Put A Kaibosh On All That - Because I Wasn't Prepared To Be Controlled. I Agreed To Co-found The Stuckists To Be Allowed To Say What I Wanted, And I Left The Stuckists Because I Didn't Really Want To Be In Them In The First Place.

One Of My Biggest Problems In Life Has Been My Inability To Lie.

I've Not Been An Admirer Of Contemporary Music Since Punk Rock Went Off The Boil In 1977, But Once A Year I'll Listen To 'spiral Scratch' By The Buzzcocks, Or 'hippy Hippy Shake' By The Swinging Blue Jeans. Otherwise, I Can Put Up With Chopin Or Shakuhachi Flute In The Background.

My Favourite Things Are Jokes, Friendliness And Feeling Comfortable.
