i had no idea Christo and the ghost of Gordon Matta-Clark were in grad school, regurgitating their youth.....do you guys do séances to summon the ghosts of artist's past?
You could try and enjoy yourself or the work. You could dump all over it. You could be jealous. You could always stay home and work on your typing skills instead of seeing what the kids are up to. You could make your own hype.
Must it be original, or authentic?
