Sermonette Commandment X

Commandment X:   Thou shalt not fuck with art.

Blunt and crude? Yes. But art in American culture is decor, backdrop for the hard sell, frivolous, a suspect livelihood, a mysterious kind of creativity, an easily disposable component of the educational curriculum, an investment option, a status symbol, something to hang on walls and then be ignored, a prop and more. Still, it speaks for culture and endures.

So don't fuck with art. Live with it and be transformed by it.
