Jubilee (1978)
Linda Spurrier: Viv
Quotes
-
Viv : Artists steal the world's energy.
Sphinx : Bet they never get caught.
Viv : Always. They become blood donors. Their lifeblood drips away until they're bled dry. And the people who control the world make it as inaccessible as possible by driving the artists into corners. You see, it's dangerous. Our only hope is to recreate ourselves, as artists or anarchists, if you like, and release the energy for all.
Sphinx : My brother's an artist. A piss artist.
-
Viv : Painting's extinct. Art isn't. It's just a habit. I started painting when I was eight, copying dinosaurs from a picture book. It was prophetic.
-
Viv : The end's inevitable. It's either now or later. It's what makes the present so vital.
