>>2902171You live in a shithole surrounded by pop up galleries that wont be there in five years.
Well let me tell you, I work for an international art gallery which deals with primary market collectors. We have 58 years of darkness and bafflement and hunger behind us. My kind have enlightened the souls of a million peasants like you, and watched many thousands of them burn in the fire of helplessness as their collections turn to nothing but fetid oil and dim pigment. A fading cadence in a burgeoning market of people who don't give a damn. WHO COME EVERY DAY DEMANDING MORE, MORE AND MORE, SPENDING MORE, MORE AND MORE, AND WE TAKE IT, WE TAKE EVERY PENNY, PROMISING PARADISE, PROMISING HELL, OR SALVATION, ANYTHING, A SENSATION, A FREEDOM, AN EDIFICATION, WE OPEN THEM, OPEN THEM, OPEN THEM, WE TRADE AND TRICK AND KILL AND BURY AND FORGET AND MOVE ON INTO THE BLACKENED ROOMS THE HARD DARK RED AND BROWN, BEHIND CLOSED DOORS WE PLAN, WE EXECUTE, WE DIRECT AND MISDIRECT. WE RUN THE ART WORLD. DONT YOU UNDERSTAND. WE ARE YOUR GODS. WE ARE YOUR GODS. WE TELL YOU ALL WHAT TO LOVE WHAT TO HATE WHAT TO THINK WHAT TO FEEL. WE ARE THE DECIDERS.
You are the ones who look. And while you look we slowly crush your entire culture into the dust until you are a shadow, a footnote, of a time gratefully forgotten.
