Loved this & also loved your interview with Roberta, too. So glad you had the down to earth guts to dislike Art Forum. I always felt so dumb for its not appealing to me. The confirmation from you certainly makes me feel smarter.

“You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.” Jerry !

Glad Jerry has evolved. Not long ago he hated Picasso.

Picasso is one a the greatest artists ever to live. He literally broke through the records to inspire serious prolific artworks from major artists ever since
