Blimey....
On a weirdly semi-related note, last night, I had a dream that I accidentally chopped off the end of my right forefinger, and a dog ate it.  |

Pissing in Duchamps urinal? That's like.... uhh... double art!
But how could he piss in it? It's supposed to stand upside down. Hmmm...
And the fingerchopping. That's disturbing. Yet in some way a beautiful gesture. Sacrifice is always fascinating. Even if it's a pinky.
Is he, or should he be called an artist?
Yes, probably.
Most people here are craftsmen anyway, why bother with this artist stuff? |

| that's just activism. there's nothing really artistic about it. and if his biggest 'work of art' otherwise is supposed to be urination somehow I don't think this fella will have much of a legacy. |

Bah, you call that sacrifice? SOME artists can only do 2 shows, and they limit those shows to sending their aforemensioned limb to their girlfriends!... okay I've been studying Van Gogh and his missin ear too much, there are too many insane artists... next you'll see some artist castrating himself or something.... If he urinated on a canvas THAT would be different, but NO... he had to deface someone ELSE's art, and for that, he must now paint with his but... wait, that didn't even make sense...  |
