Remaining firm in one's convictions is free!!

I was told (by my art committee) that I am an artist not an activist and the words Utopian and economy and any reference to the environment is not approved.  I acquiesced. Briefly. My apologies.

After much thought and deliberation I've decided to go against the wishes of the committee and keep Utopia.
Why?  because Utopia suggests a higher authority, everyone else, the collective conscience, and each of us has a responsibility to each other.

(This forced awareness, acknowledgement of other travelers, might be the only thing keeping people responsible in the free pile installation on opening night. I'm a little worried about people pulling in and filling up their trucks and driving to the closest flea market without considering the Utopian aspect of free.  Not something most artists have to worry about...)

The Utopian aspect of free? there's enough for everyone, don't be greedy.  A Utopian ideal would be looking at an object for its personal use to you, as a benefactor, not it's imagined re-sale value - we can leave greed to the capitalists.

I was told I was an artist not an activist...

Remaining firm in one's conviction is free!
Stubborn determination is free!

The price might be a very unhappy committee and I'm not sure of the consequences of that.
