This has been such an authentic and relevant art movement. I think it’s among the most intriguing art movements of our age because it’s comprehensive to us but it’s far from inevitable from context. Nobody could have predicted how succinct and expressive it would have been. The medium doesn’t favor it, history didn’t suggest it, the market didn’t reward it, but society somehow demanded it.

American art institutions will pretend to celebrate it eventually, but they will never acknowledge it for what it truly means.

For the record, I never had anything to do with this movement. I’m strait and don’t game. I just admire tremendously the humanity that abounds from this movement.
