Contemporary Art

Share

The Brooklyn Museum controversy is the last straw. Here is my simple solution to the arts funding problem: No publicly funded institution should be in the contemporary arts business. Museums must be reserved for works of art more than 25 years old and works by artists who are safely dead.

I have been in the arts my entire life. Believe me, none of my colleagues is yet worthy of enshrinement in a museum. Let ‘em fight it out in the galleries where they belong.
