Dear Z,
You missed my point. Les Levine and Iain Baxter did those projects *as*
artworks, not as day jobs to support their art or pay the rent. They,in
fact, doubtless lost money on them. As for "labelling" you seem to have a
problem with language. To call Rudy G. a Republican is simply a
description. And obviously some descriptions are better than others,
depending on the skill and acuity of the describer.
Best,
Robert Atkins
