Not all homages are equally successful, Derek -- that's why we have the two juries to determine their relative success.
Would your homage to King Lear be judged as presenting the same,outstanding qualities the jury has found in Shakespeare's version? All things are possible -- ---but I think it's much more likely that if we gave you a human skull, some jars of paint, sequins, and a kilo of warm elephant dung you would eventually be able to do a successful homage to those African sculptures that you've just shown. It's similar to a lot of stuff found in graduate shows here at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago -- that kind of specializes in teaching (or allowing) kids to be primitive. So I work done 'in homage' to a work will neceessarily be one that 'duplicates the qualities' of that work? I just have to write a homage to King Lear and I will have duplciated its qualities? _____________________________________________________________ Compete with the big boys.
