This topic was a pretty funny contrast with the last one. These artists will be starving artists all right when their Wall Street backing dries up.

I suspect that there are plenty of sincere non market oriented, non groovoid artists safely underground of the crrent market.

Art, it's not just for breakfast anymore.....errr....uhmmmmnn...I make art, therefore errrrr....uhmmmnnn....well I'm in the biennial and urrrr not. I'm quite happy having quit an art career for delivering the nation's milk.

Gotta agree with Laura. If one of the most important speech of our lifetime is made and only bloggers listen, did it happen? Sad.

How tedious! People have no ability to see art in all its' subtlety today and so the art market and art institutions have substituted these puerile little pseudo intellectual exercises. You can think about it and talk about it in lieu of actually looking and discovering beauty. It's mental masturabation. And these exercises which depend on novelty tend to a rehash of something that has already been done. I remember this same thing being done in the East Village some time back. Someone said "Everything changes but the avant garde". Or as Shakespeare said "There's nothing new under the sun". It is hovwever obviously a good career move as witnessed by the fact that this fairly inarticulate and uninteresting young artist is included in the Whitney Biennial. And being impressed by these credentials it has earned him a slot on your show. Ho hum.

Bert showed be arrested for practicing therapy with-out a license.

This guy is making me sick...

The Biennial was absolute garbage. If I had to look through another piece that looked like a wall frame with visually obstructing slats, I was going to puke. What nonsense...
