Debate at the V&A
Very peculiar title (grammatically) which none of the four speakers really addressed. No one mentioned truth to the materials or authenticity of the object; it was all about sincerity of the artist. But it was also about fragmentation of the self. And the last speaker used it as a springboard to advertise Creative Commons licensing now that -- his view -- the internet was robbing authorship of its authority and therefore of authenticity. Made my blood boil.
