----------------------------Original message---------------------------- No one has addressed the blooper in all the uproar: "Artists" who > are in need of psychotherapy should visit a shrink, not pollute the > walls and floors of cultural institutions with their ***deification*** (or > the excrement of any animal for that matter). Mr. Keaveney, Did you mean to say DEFECATION (the act of discharging feces from the bowels), not DEIFICATION (derived from deify, "to make a god of, to take as an object of worship, to glorify as of supreme worth"? As an ARLIS-L lurker, I am grateful to Jeffrey Salem, Martha Hagood, and others who have cast the light of good sense and reason on this rather murky situation. Regina Moore Regina S.
