Lot Essay

“That's what it's all about–making art is making something live forever. Human beings especially–we can't hold on to them in any way. Painting and art is a way of holding onto things and making things go on through time” - Elizabeth Peyton, quoted in J. Cocker, “Elizabeth Peyton,” Interview, November 2008.
