We create these walls between fact and fiction, but often the difference between the two is as little as that between a real name and a pseudonym. So I'm not sure about those walls - certainly not in the realm… — Stuart Franklin Copy Share Image
There's an awful lot of work being done that no one ever sees, or that is only seen in the gallery world. I feel… — Stuart Franklin Copy Share Image
I think it's terribly important to reach out and understand all the different types of life and the different types of challenges that are… — Stuart Franklin Copy Share Image
