Art, freedom and creativity will change society faster than politics.

Contemporary art will help me to modernise our society.

For me it's very important to turn Kiev into one of the main centers of contemporary art in the world. There is New York. There's London. And there will be Kiev. Everyone will come and say, 'Wow!'

Businessmen need to understand the challenges of society and contribute to solving them.

What is extraordinary about contemporary art is the energy - it has our energy. New energy. Pieces hundreds of years old are beautiful from an aesthetic point of view, but without our modern energy.

Politicians love power. I love freedom. That is why I am not a politician.
