feedback.vancouver

Anonymity allows us to say the things that the institutional politics of art makes prohibitive.

More like that you're too cowardly to say. It's Vancouver, not Afghanistan. Sheesh.

Hi, this is is my real name. I used to live in Vancouver, but no longer. I think that if you feel the way that you say that you do you have to use your real names or else, really, who will give a shit?

I mean, I don't.

I know lots of people with gripes in Vancouver, and most of them tend to say what they feel. As for the paucity of discourse in art, that is everywhere, and not systemic. Paraphrasing Robin Blaser, if you are going to say kiss my ass, have the guts to drop your pants when you say it.
