Sebastiao Salgado

Art Studio Quotes #1806282

Bruce Nauman

Art Studio Quotes #658521

Keren Ann

#46. "Art Imitates life," of course, is that phrase by Oscar Wilde. I called that song "Art Imitates Life" because Oh No was in the studio and he actually came up with that hook. When I was trying to figure out a name for the record, it just kind of made sense.
