Hi Kelley Ann,

That's a tough one. I guess in order not to be pigeonholed we'd have to go with Duchamp's often quoted statement that there is no solutions since there's no problem. Yes, he was an iconoclast of sorts but refused to be called anti-artist, rather wanting to be known as an-artist (close to 'anarchist' of course). Another rule for the artist he explicitely gave was that 'the artist of tomorrow will go underground", steering clear of the artworld's hustle and bustle that is. Best, Thomas
