on another level, studies have shown that animals, even insects, have a
sense of symmetry, aesthetics, etc. from bowerbirds to butterflies, art
exists without the word and social contraptions etc.

Makes me wonder...
What clever thing, might elephants boast amongst themselves, to have taught
the occasional human to accomplish?

Wonderful! And elephants have been taught to paint, btw. This
extends in all sorts of directions; our friend Rachel
Rosenkrantz has bees contributing to the design of an acoustic

Michael,
I agree with what others have said, these are extremely
thought-provoking, and almost any one of the questions would be
material for a couple of hours of discussion. Great material for
a book too!
My favourite one is 'If I collaborate with an elephant to make
an artwork is that elephant my fellow artist?' That really
appeals to me. First of all, you immediately start to wonder
what kind of artwork the elephant could participate in -
elephant footprints on a canvas? an elephant with a paintbrush
in its trunk? maybe something displayed on the sides of the
elephant? Secondly, who wouldn't want an elephant as a fellow
artist? And just imagine the presentation if you won the Turner
Prize!
