Ryan McGinley frases

• You have to be able to observe life as if you were a camera all the time, constantly looking at light and the way that things are placed and the way people hold themselves. You need the ability to see something in someone or something that no one else really sees and be able to bring that to light. Basically, you have to be an obsessive crazy person.

• I think that's an important lesson for young people who want to be artists: You have to find someone who believes in you and who will help you find that time where you don't have to think about a job but just making work. If I didn't have those people in my life, I wouldn't be in the position I'm in.

• En aquella época estudiaba diseño gráfico, cuando salieron los escáneres de negativos y todo ese material, y podías hacerlo todo en tu apartamento. Así que disparaba, hacía hojas de contacto, escaneaba todos los negativos y hacía fanzines y libros con mis fotos para regalárselos a mis amigos. Me aficioné a los fanzines y a hacer libros a partir de la cultura del skate.
