I like that the art world isn't regulated.

The art world is molting - some would say melting. Galleries are closing museums are scaling back.

Almost all institutions own a lot more art than they can ever show, much of it revealing for its timeliness, genius, or sheer weirdness.

The forties, seventies, and the nineties, when money was scarce, were great periods, when the art world retracted but it was also reborn.

Robert Rauschenberg was not a giant of American art he was the giant. No American created so many aesthetic openings for so many artists.
