Threatening postcards

         2007-2009

 

Heres a threatening notion:  in 2005

Reuters, the worlds oldest news gathering organization, reported that

museum curators were no longer able

to afford to buy the works of "living artists". ART- having outstripped even

the bond market as the most likely

investment to appreciate-was now commanding the most astronomical prices ever, raising the value of

bonifide, validated works of living art stars beyond the reach of the

museums and the mere exhibitions

intended for the art in that context.

Oddly though, the examples of this fabulously expensive investmunt art

mentioned were a temporary sculpture

made of fresh flowers & a bar of soap fabricated from the liposuctioned fat of the italian prime minister. ???????????
