‘I actually forced myself into the computer stuff to have that exchange affect all my paintings... Of course some are black and white, and have these lines going their way while others have more mud and, I don’t know.. fog and whatever, but they have a lot to do with each other. The process of making these black and white computer generated images is also similar to the others, because I begin with a print and then start treating it. This treatment goes further than one thinks at first sight, because the idea is to have it and to be unhappy with it...I try to have something really difficult or daring because the more daring it is, the more surprising the result is’ (A. Oehlen, quoted in ‘Conversation with Andrea Tarsia’, in I Always Champion Good Painting: Albert Oehlen, exh. cat., Whitechapel Gallery, London, 2006, p. II).
