1. Why does it seem preferable that artists maintain a mysteriousness about themselves?

2. Isn’t it true that an Artist’s personality, and personal experiences and interpretations are the main influences on their work? And if so, why does Autobiographical or Introspective Art seem like only a sliver of what is out there?

3. Am I imagining this? Or is there something strangely subtle and dishonest about our cultural relationship with Art and the people that make it?

4. Comments, please (all ten of you).
