Man, whatever happened to "I measure my criticism by the inch"?
The art world has been without criticism for so long you think it's aberrant--torpedo-ing an artist's sales.
What about truth? Is it good work or not?
Just because the art world uses auctions to value work you have to, too?
I've gotten bad print reviews. I curse the writer for a while, refuse to put the clip on my resume, then get over it and put it on my resume.
Someone's talking about my work, that's great!
Anyway, I'm a blogger. This blog is about an artist with opinions. Your assigned roles for people are print era vestiges.
The legal system is a good analogy. Except instead of artist vs critic, it's advocate vs advocate, trying to get at some truth, and then they go have a beer after the trial.
You don't accuse the other advocate of unwarranted personal hostility (not saying you have, but others did in the threads)--you have to see them the next day!
