letter of reference: goo art

Contemporary Art is a brutally competitive industry, and it is an industry that has its feet firmly planted in a Square Man’s World. Funny is a huge risk, especially for women artists, since it is so tough for women to be taken seriously anyway.

It’s not so hard for a woman to lose her mind or existentially starve trying to measure up to the Gods of Academic Art.

Thank goodness women like Amanda and Vanessa are bucking the tide with projects like Goo Art. They are so brave and funny and adaptive that I can’t help but think they will be successful in everything they attempt.
