Even Better

"…art isn’t structure, but the conflict of structures. Art is the catastrophe of structures. And if one can say that the imagination is better than reality, art is even better, because it’s the dream of every structure’s collapse and at the same time the dream of the construction of new structures.”

—Viktor Shklovsky, interviewed by Serena Vitale, December 1978
