That Matt Jones took the picture of Damien Hirst wielding an ax (i-D magazine October 1995) is a given, but, unfortunately, I no longer remember where the squatting Hirst nude came from, however, the back of the cut-outs depict an art gallery advertisement.

the best question is what does criticism not want 2 or cannot c today
manifest that and you'll likely be several years ahead of everyone else (who are otherwise most likely playing follow the spoon feeding leader)
Re: Who is the greatest figurative painter alive?
observing critic's demands is the same as following the spoon feeding leader
if critics saw better, they'd be artists then
Re: Ichnographia Romaphilia
While working with Piranesi the discussion is often enlightening.
"So why exactly did you produce two versions of the Ichnographia Campus Martius and keep everyone none the wiser?"
"Overall, I just wanted to see who would find the two versions first. They were found, eventually (after more than two hundred years, but it's embarrassing for all the Piranesi "scholars" because it wasn't one of them."
"Why do you think the so-called scholars failed? Why did they not see what was always right in front of them?
"Simply put, they never reenacted the source."
"Kahn reenacted the source, and he didn't see the two versions."
"Well, I'd say Kahn was busy manifesting new versions of his own."
"Perhaps it's just plain destiny that Philadelphia itself reenacts the source."
"You know, I love you guys like brothers."
"That's fine as long as you realize that we're all independent as well."
"Ha, tell that to Romulus and Remus."

architecture movements
Here's a list of just some of my favorite architecture movements:
The Altar from Pergamon to Berlin.
The Temple of Abu Simbel to higher ground.
Domitian's Naumachia dismantled to repair the fire damaged Circus Maximus.
The spiral columns from Greece to San Pietro Vaticano.
Cedar Grove from Harrowgate to Fairmount Park (Philadelphia).
Aldo Rossi's Teatro del Mondo floating into the Venetian lagoon.
...and my most anticipated architecture movement:
The Elgin Marbles returning to the Acropolis.

16 December 1933. Saturday, New York City[-Philadelphia]
Invited to lunch by Sturgis Ingersoll, Duchamp travels to Philadelphia where he meets a number of collectors who are "very enthusiastic" about Brancusi's work currently on exhibition at the Brummer Gallery [17.11.1933]. Ingersoll and another collector of Brancusi's work, Maurice Speiser [27.1.27], tell Duchamp that they will try to arrange the purchase of an important sculpture for the Philadelphia Museum of Art by a group of collectors.
