"Gaza Love was more influenced by General Idea's AIDS piece and Rage Against The Machine's 'Renegades' album cover than Robert Indiana. However I realize neither transgression would have been possible without Indiana's iconic LOVE." - Kyle Goen

"Why am I participating in this year’s edition of Art The Arms Fair? Any chance to act in solidarity with Palestine or with people working in solidarity with Palestine, is a must for me." - Kyle Goen
