While reading a Martha Rosler essay (Video: Shedding The Utopian Moment) this morning there was this quote from Allan Kaprow about art:
“At this stage of consciousness, the sociology of culture emerges as an in-group ‘dumb show.’ Its sole audience is a roster of the creative and performing professions, watching itself, as if in a mirror, enact a struggle between self-appointed priests and a cadre of equally self-appointed commandos, jokers, gutter-snipers, and triple agents who seem to be attempting to destroy the priests’ church. But everyone knows how it all ends: in church, of course…”
I am about to go out to the book store for my annual Rothko wall calendar and later scratch some color on canvas.
