Questions for the readership:

What does it mean, today, to "submit an artwork to judgment"? What constitutes judgment? Whose judgment? Surely not only my own? When I asked Peter Schjeldahl a variation on this question last year he said, in effect, you're thinking too much. Just make your work. The work will instruct you. Which is fine as far as it goes, but it would be nice to see the works (which are not only arrangements of pixels, but also physical objects) out in the world, where strangers could see them, and shit-talk them.

(Remembering everyone who ever mailed a "submission package" into the VAG's curatorial department -- slide set; CV; statement -- in the hope of getting a show, who would probably have been better advised to buy a LottoMax ticket)
