Re: the difference between shit and extasis
Pat writes: the others are frequently becoming "idiots" because they can't perceive their "art" is actually perceived as bull sh....... by a majority. even so then they keep on, eventually sustained by their idea of being misunderstood, or trying to impose some ideas to others those others would never accept. or they consider the law of majority rule as a sh... for being strongly motivated individualists but sometimes they can't understand such misunderstanding, and keep pushing on without any result, neither for them.
Steve asks: If what you write is indeed true (as opposed to hypothetical), then there are no doubt plentiful examples to offer. Can you at least supply us with a few?
Pat also writes: sometimes their public is more absurd, and can't see the talented work the others should see as a new process of expression.
Steve adds: Good examples of this are van Gogh and Duchamp (and there are still some that don't see all that much regarding Duchamp's art, and, who knows, they may still be right).
