"Artists are parasites, because art is a luxury. You can’t eat it, drive in it, or live in it." So says Australian artist Chris O'Doherty. Read the post – and be sure to watch the video. It's a treat.
I confess I like a lot of RM’s work and ideas but I think he is being far too harsh calling artists parasites. Many forms of art are readily combustible (just ask any dictator) which sits nicely within Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs - warmth, shelter, food, etc.
PS: Remo, I think it is a little over the top putting a paywall on your still nascent website. You will miss out on gems like the comment above 😂.
Thanks for subscribing Chris – and I look forward to you receiving RR5. PS: FYI, the paywall for each post only occurs after 14 days; meaning that paid subscribers such as yourself get unfettered access to the archive, among other benefits. Cheers, Remo
