OK, now you've totally lost me. The "love children" statement is complete bullshit. So's the first one.

I'm having a hard time connecting the dots here:

"the people who arrive late on the scene", "sought the spiritual expression through ancient forms other than the Christian one", searching for a spiritual base, "the gift must always move", etc.

Yes, searching for a new spiritual base... but I don't see how the 'Second Peoples' show relates to the other two examples.

Why are the statements themselves bullshit?

Because they are devoid of meaning, and the meaning they strive for is stupid. Hippies looking for new spirituality were embarrassing and doltish then, not admirable or even interesting. "Second peoples" doesn't mean anything -- "after the beginning" -- this is what words do when they're not being used to refer to anything. These idiots don't know who they are.

I can tolerate a little art-speak claptrap, but New Age claptrap I have zero tolerance for.

"The gift must always move."

Juppe Hein, the artist who is installing a work on top of the TK building and was behind the Henry Ball this year, is all about this. "UP AND DOWN, UP AND DOWN" he puts it. Juppe stressed the importance of building communities and helping others out. Artists and organizations around here need to do a better job promoting the work of others in order for a community to solidify. Rather than merely fighting over the title of being the best, as cities or as individuals, we need to work together to help each other grow and succeed.

We're all in this together.

Please wait...
