“Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.”
Like the traditional church, the institutional art world wields much worldly power and is custodian of great wealth and wisdom, and like the church of old, and in spite of the brilliant individuals of integrity to be found there, it nourishes perversity, accommodates abuses and betrays the spiritual truth of its own origins. Art, like religion, arises from the spirit, but alas, the formalising of spiritual life all too often ends in hypocrisy.
Leunig does makes sense every few years. This has been one of them.
The gatekeepers are there to keep the poseurs out, which is why Leunig opposes them. His knowledge of religion is on par with his draftsmanship.CheersJMH
