Hi Eugene et al.:
Eugene, thank you for sending the link to this intriguing article. (I am
eager to read other reactions.)
Another reaction:
Remembering from my distant past as a working artist, one of our big gripes was museum interpretation. Our collective view was that we created art, art historians and museums attached baggage to it. I think we universally resented the "artist's statement" that we occasionally were called upon to create. So I'd think that artists would find the lack of "educational" devises refreshing.
