Manifesto

1. 2D is inferior. 2D is trickery and deception. There is no consideration beyond simple function. Not that it's not worth doing, but inferior. 3D arts are deeper.

2. Public art sucks. Well, most of it anyway. Most is ill thought out and mis placed. Most public art is better left unmade. Updates to come on bad public art.

3. Work reproduced, recast, reformed, changed in material without the artists intent is no longer art. Degas bronze dancer's are no longer objects of art. Most of the Rodin's of the world cease to be objects of art.

4.....still in progress, your input is welcome

come on, not all public art is bad, just the metal drums and junk, and... okey most is poor.

Hear hear! (Bangs beer glass on table repeatedly.) 2-D *is* inferior. And manifestos are great!
