well i had the idea that adding content to wiki was what was expected i fail to understand the pure genius comment other an attempt to be nasty i may add that his essays on baudrillard were accepted for publication at the international journal of baudrillard studies so your testimony to their worthlessness seems silly and rather petty of you yes i created this page and more frank popper and ebon fisher but after this experience there will be no more content supplied by me there are no claims of global influence only specific facts concerning all three pages i created for you if you object to my linking his early work to punk then remove that reference but please stop your pettiness rydernechvatal i think you dodge the issues at hand completely the issue here is the integrity of the online encyclopedia to place nechvatal into the field of collage artists on par with matisse is patently disrespectful to this project there are thousands of artists who do collage and very few deserve mention on wikipedia my brother is an artist but you won't find me putting him all over wikipedia he just doesn't have the stature required that's not a criticism of his work or of nechvatal's it's a statement about what an encyclopedia is for may i suggest you build nechvatal a nice myspace page similarly to place a page review on baudrillard alongside the remarks of susan sontag is not helpful either the point of the encyclopedia is not to list every possible thing connected to baudrillard in which case nechvatal's piece would qualify the point is to discuss and link things which help introduce and illuminate someone at the scale of an encyclopedia there are thousands of published articles on baudrillard and very very few of them have a place on wikipedia the same is true of punk visual art and so on and so forth you really don't own up to any of this this is why the charge of pettiness applies well to you if you truly took responsibility you would remove your additions and links yourself rather than ditching this chore to the community but that's the basic misunderstanding here wikipedia is not about individual promotion by self by fans or by family it's about a community of people building knowledge in a collaborative way dylanfly nechvatal as a collagist is discussed in brandon taylor's recent book collage published by thames hudson ltd p perhaps your brother is in that book as well thus i have nothing to own up to for the first citation he has also exhibited in paris cologne alalst belgium lund and munich and has participated in museum exhibitions around the world citation needed see the artists cv here for list of exhibitions for your nd citation for his work being in the israel museum in jerusalem citation needed see for art historian donald kuspit has written in his essay the matrix of sensations that nechvatal's digital painting demonstrates that there are more possibilities of freedom in digital art that is the mental elements are free r to enter into various combinations and thus to be manipulated than in architecture painting and sculpture citation needed see which is cited in the reference section for frank popper states in his book from technological to virtual art that nechvatal's computer virus work is important to the history of art as it has advanced the use of digital technology and artificial intelligence while defending and preserving the values of formal painting citation needed see frank popper from technological to virtual art mit press pp this is also cited in the reference section does that help rydernechvatal
