Don't get me wrong, do your own thing, just shut the fuck up about it.
No, when artists (artists, not TARTlets) do it it's usually quite good, especially when they even start writing manifestos (that are often much better than the actual art), hold stalinist tribunals about who can be part of their movement etc.

But usually, as with music's neo-micro-sub-styles, at least nowadays these are created by critics and fans art-lovers anyway.

Fuck this place.
