NEWS NEWS NEWS on short story comp.

I have negotiated with my good friend Henning, Boss of the Berlin gig, that the winning entry of the short story comp. will be published in the Event Booklet.

Also the winning entry in a later Poetry Comp will also be published.

Cool, or what!

Dear C2- I did not want to return to the thread and discussion, which has been murdered- OK, C2- I tried to discuss art with you, I'll leave you to discuss the use of art for propaganda with Eva Braun. bee, strange post. I have really enjoyed the development of this thread. Apart from the dull inte...

I can't yet find online the review from today's Observer, that may have been interesting because the writer seemed to start with the same pre-conceptions as you did, Bee, or perhaps the same first impressions. But once the writer saw the statue in real life she was very impressed by the artistic mer...

Also, to put her in the public place with open space around, I do not know, if there are trees or flowers, or the street cars around, but seems to me- a rather barbaric prospect. I guess people are heartless for the sakes of idea. thanks for the technical views and when I go to see the sculpture &q...

Dear Greg and C2- Just some simple questions-why is "craft" a taboo word in the fine arts, while in literature it has continued to be a requirement that is taken for granted? Neither of you two would demonstrate a piece of literature by abandoning its medium, no matter what noble idea you...

in the case of [for example] a beautiful photo of two lovers, the subject of love; or being condescending for paying tribute to the state of being physically 'uncrippled.' No one accuses them of anything. The piece of art is simply admired and lauded for its beauty. Yet, to find beauty in the depic...

I don't know enough to judge its real artisitc merit but I enjoy the piece very much. It's possible that I am influenced by reading parts of Alison Lapper's recently published autobiography. C2- Saddens me-if you can't judge the artistic merits-by means of what do you enjoy the piece? If you are en...
