This person and similar peeps on Brodbeck's blog are seriously deluded. Hey, I actually like art. I have many pieces in my home from Winnipeg artists. I paid for them. I think that is what all artists should aspire to: get people to pay them for their work...When society loses its Cultural Arts facet, the rest of society fails.

In Florida they want to end all public arts funding until economy recovers.
Some of these self-proclaimed 'artists' produce works that don't sell to the public at large but want the work funded by those same people through the back-door.grumpy old man wrote:.... I think that is what all artists should aspire to: get people to pay them for their work...

What a waste of money, for an astronomy centre! They charge admissions, let that pay for this useless toy to look at the stars.
What a useless occupation!
