I'm not sure which modernist critic said that it wasn't possible
to do anything with landscape any more. But when people say things like
that I'm always perverse enough to think,
‘Oh, I'm sure it is.’ I thought about it, and then I decided that
it couldn't be true because every generation looks differently.
Of course you can still paint landscape – it’s not been worn out.
