Can use acetone to do the transfers from xeroxes--so xerox images from newspaper etc and then transfer w/ acetone, a relatively benign solvent (much less deadly than some others). Also, since the advent of soy inks, the old solvent-transfer from newspaper thing doesn't work as well. This

I myself would hope that the notion of "progress" in art, an imagining of arthistory to parallel, say, the development of material technologies, could be discarded. Thus the notion of the avantgarde--that is, those out in front, those "most progressive"--could also be discarded. I don't think

Bless you, Don, for a soul without jealousy. I too like Beuys's work and I find his impulses prescient; it seems to me, from what I know of the times and from what I read, that the intersection of Beuys and Fluxus may have been brief but was important and fruitful. These crossings of trajectories
