Questions for the 22nd

1. What are your thoughts on the limit that has thus forth been placed on the viewers interaction with a piece? That is to say, what do you think that art must some how invite or approve of audience participation before one is even "allowed" to touch or feel art? (This question is a bit of a jump off of the Relational Aesthetics reading. Not a direct connection, but a recent question I've had in my head. The reading reestablished the idea in my interest when Bourriaud was discussing the viewer.)

2. What is really left in our everyday live that does not require some type of skill, pre-taught or known through instinct? Have we forced even the simplest things to have to require some type of knowledge?

3. After reading "Clearing the Ground", do you feel that you need to redefine your description of an artist?
