These surrealists who made the early films were shooting in the dark, they were feeling their way. But they've left behind a sign on a door that said: once this door is opened, in the future, it will make a way for a brand new kind of film. I'm very happy to be a fellow traveler with any of these guys. David Lynch in Arena - Ruth, Roses and Revolver (Feb 20 1987)

J’aimerais penser que l’art n’est pas une affaire d’objets mais de regards. Je ne vous montre pas un objet mais un regard. Mes objets sont simplement là pour vous permettre de comprendre un regard. Le regard auquel j’ai travaillé. Un style de vie, disait Michel Foucault, ou « faire de sa vie une œuvre d’art ». C’est aussi l’histoire de la fenêtre de Chandler, que je raconte dans un livre : « Je vis aujourd’hui en Italie, au sommet d’une tour, dans un appartement peint en blanc, très ensoleillé. J’ai Rome à mes pieds et le ciel devant moi. Suivant les conseils de Chandler, je passe le plus clair de mon temps à regarder par la fenêtre, dans l’espoir de parvenir à voir autrement que comme j’ai appris à voir. » Emmanuel Hocquard, Le Cours de Pise, P.O.L, 2018
