"Bosch
and Brueghel were ahead of their time. They were fighting against
enormous odds to make statements that might be seen as sinful. Looking at their
pictures, I see these brown and red tones that seem to evoke history and
madness at the same time, and I want to commend them for taking this plunge
into madness...." -- Ed Ruscha, on his Vienna show 'The Ancients Stole All Our Great Ideas', New Yorker interview, 2013
