I agree; so now that we've reached this point, why don't all who wish disclaimers for this exhibit go off and write what they want and we'll put them all there. The idea of 21 Surrealist Definitions (all exclusory) seems amusing to say the least (and perhaps closer to the current 'heart' of surrealism that some would care to admit.) We should also invite all participating groups to provide a definition as well. This way, we do get to show all the complexity and differences of Surrealism without having to start any fights. [Not that these won't happen anyway.] This seems a fair-minded solution to this problem to me at least. -- Michael Betancourt E-mail: mwb2-AT-mosquito.com Index to Web Sites: http://www.mosquito.com/~mwb2
