Nothing

I should have started with a clear idea of what I intend to write about - but I have varied interests and don't consider one more important than the other. I think it would be better to list the sorts of things that you will never find me writing about: business, indepth politics or science beyond the abstract level.

There is a russian artist by the name of Malyavin that I would recommend you look up; as far as I know, his work is grossly underrated and deserves far more attention than some of the works on show today. I would rather have one sketch by him hang in the Tate Modern than a thousand installations by Tracey Emin.

The irony is that her success is due to the art critic's love of promoting whatever goes against the public opinion. I would be very interested to know how many people admire her work; not academically, but as a creative piece of art.

There will be a revolution in art - and the same goes for almost all sectors and hidden corners of society.
