should art have social/political message?
I think it depends on the artist. The very act of doing art that's true to one self is a social and political act. I am not one that creates or is interested in very political art, well at least not art that crams it down your throat. I believe the true master can get the point across in a more subdued, or even humorous fashion. Like Terry Gilliam for example.
why do I do art?-
at first it was a way out of the work world, i went to art school not because I cared about art, but a way to temporarily escape hell, now its just a way of life, I am controlled by the bastard god "Art" I really have no say in the matter any more. I am bored by most art, and figured I should do something about it, so I have created work that entertains me.
