[-empyre-] saatchi

[catherine liu]

Saatchi was not a good guy...his collecting habits were destructive 
-- but he pioneered a way of acting in the art world that set an 
example for collecting and corporate sponsorship of art exhibits that 
enhanced the value of his own collection... read Wu's book...but I 
agree that politically engaged art is the way the out...I'm not sure 
that art and ethics have any relationship at all....
