My belief is that it is most important
for an artist to develop an approach
and philosophy about life — if he
has developed this philosophy, he
does not put paint on canvas, he
puts himself on canvas.
This is my genre....
the happiness, tragedies,
and the sorrows of mankind
as realized in the teeming
black ghetto.
