        I enjoyed it. If I'd been able to stay in the states, I'd probably have ended up in NY, but I'd certainly have spent a few years in the Mini Apple!

        Where are you?

            You're not far wrong Faust, but it was the other one of my weaknesses, pretty girls. I fell in love with a Minnesotan girl, and the only way to go live in Minnesota was to go to college. So being the arrogant fool that I am, I applied to the best college that I could find (and I believe that MCAD was pretty high in the rankings at the time) and I got in. The girl disappeared, as they tend to, but I decided that there may be a future in this US art thing... Jackson Pollock, Robert Motherwell, Jasper Johns... The shock of the new... from Bauhaus to our house! So I hung around for a while.
            I am totally going to use this.

                    I really have no idea why my iPhone just did that to my post. Festive though!

                      yes, i got that hobo....certainly did not think you were nicking.

                      I thought Faust might like to know about the book, that's all.

                        Not sure he'd like to read it though, AFAIK Wolfe talked out of his ass, just like when he attempted to challenge the modern art world or describe the college experience.

                          That one I knew, hobo. Coincidentally, I am gearing up to read "The Tradition of the New."

                            may be heresy, but I still believe this is preferable and more classic than the funnel neck one everyone (me included) beasts over.

                              Actualy, I meant the Tom Wolfe book was a good beginners book. It's a quick read which gives good referance (dates, people, places). Shock of the New is way more advanced academic stuff, interesting though.

                              I really didn't mean to get into this 'up yer arse' I've read more books than you shit. They just happened to be 2 books that I read 20 years ago, when I was at MCAD, and actually remembered.
