Digital BW, The Print

Hi,

I don't know how many prints you sell in France but, hey, if it 
really offends you...

But it isn't

No it's not

That's true ( according to some ) but doesn't that ('cheap and 
tawdry') mean the same as 'rude'?


> Who kidding whom here?

I don't think anyone is kidding anyone

The point I am making is that you call your artwork what you care to, 
regardless of the opinion of others or their mis-use of language. The 
fact is that this method (whatever you wish to call it) of producing 
artwork is relatively new and squabbles inside the media are bound to 
occurr. It's healthy and produces ideas and growth.

If we need to coin a phrase to legitamise the process we have chosen, 
it may as well be one which will enable the reactionary art world to 
hang work with a light heart. After all it's the work that is the 
important thing here, not the process.

Let's stop being pedantic about process and get on with producing 
breathtaking images which would be valid regardless.
