Actually, I have nothing against artists and the art world
per se my activity just falls along a different line- the sort of
post-punk DIY "say you're an artist and you are" school
validated by Joseph Beuys' ideas and much Fluxus as
formulated by Maciunas. My chosen field of work
xerigraphy (or copy art) is very contentious
as a medium too and my activity also includes mail art
and mail poetry which are traditionally considered
marginal forms. Sometimes I get a bit dissatisfied
living on the fringes and I go to trendy vernissages
or museums and they bore me... anyways I really
have nothing against art or artists I just came to my
role a maker differently. Also for me it is an avocation
not a vocation.
Just wanted to clear that up.
