We have freedom of speech, so what about the freedom of pictures?" -- "An artist must not be tied down by any limits except his own. Without this freedom he becomes a mere craftsman." -- "I like to provoke, to balance on the edge or to go over it, but just a provocation itself without any artistic intention and value is not enough." -- "Digital or analog photography?
