Art Car: The Movie

Harrod Blank:
It's so strange; it seems like on one hand everybody wants to be an individual and represent themselves on Facebook and MySpace as being this special, dynamic, fun-loving, great person. But in reality, that's just the shell that they are portraying. Do they have the guts to decorate their vehicle, or their house, or even their clothing or their outfit? You know, not really. For the most part, I don't think so.

Harrod Blank:
You are a freak. If you did this, you are a freak.

Barbara Hinton:
It's visual jazz, because it's kind of improvisational and spontaneous.

Dan Aykroyd:
This is one of the greatest confluences of creative forces and automobile technology that you will ever see in your life.

Brian Mahanay:
You've got the best medium in the world, because you can do anything you want to do as an artist, and you can drive it around. You can take it to the people. It doesn't sit in a gallery, or it doesn't wait for a show.

Larry Fuente:
I don't consider myself a collector, even though I have huge collections of things, because collectors collect things and that's the end of the process. But having a collection, to me, I have nothing that I would not put into a work of art... Sentimentality, I have, but not to the extent of reserving something from anything else. To me, it's all art. Or actually, it's all art supplies. The whole world is just art supplies.

Larry Fuente:
These are car parts, for future art cars. Important parts. Quads, dual quads, five-speeds, a sailfish.

Jackie Harris:
Sometimes the art crowd is the most surprisingly conservative and closed-minded bunch you've ever seen in your life.

Jackie Harris:
The thing about cars is they're really status. They're many, many, many things to us. More than any other symbol they're everything to us. They represent everything. I mean, freedom, sex, status... anything you can think of, a car is to us.

Larry Fuente:
I always thought the perfect response would be if somebody came up and looked at it and just threw up on it or something.

David Best:
This is not the hottest. The other dump is a much better resource.

Scott Prescott:
Safety second. Always.
