Dear all...
Apropos this mail (see below) I really feel that however well meaning, it is an inappropriate use of this mailing list/forum for members to merely forward without so much as comment or any
analysis, material from other mailing lists/networks which they have at least had the choice of signing up to. I personally have no interest whatsoever in reading about the dubiously titled:
Masters of the American West Fine Art Exhibition and Sale or their phenomenal sales figures and am now going to have to look at Degas or Schiele for a half an hour just to cleanse my
retinas and my visual memory of this awful onslaught. At the bottom of this mail the original sender is offered the choice to unsubscribe, I on the other hand have no defence against this
unwanted – chauvinistic and colonialist – overblown, offensive, illustration masquerading as art, (the kind of thing that gives figurative art a bad name – you can see my tolerance had been
over stretched :-) ) if I wish to keep receiving the, for the most part, interesting contributions from the DR network. Please can we see some discretion. I only have so much patience and
more relevantly so much web-mail in-box space. For the love of Geronimo desist!! ?
Yours sincerely
Tom McGuirk

> Angeles. This event, recognized as the country’s most important
> Western art show, featured more than seventy nationally recognized
> contemporary artists. We got to meet many wonderful people and see
> a lot of incredible art. Total sales of $4.7 million set a Autry
> National Center record, so it was a very exciting and successful
