I dont think the mayor or aldermen are that shallow that they would ostracize someone for a slightly negative and sometimes deserving opinion of our city. Artist are accustomed to criticism as it is an important part of their growth. Just like artists, the criticism leveled at GC is exactly what it needs to keep improving.
For example Lib, I don't think the work I have seen of yours is that good. I think it shows promise and enthusiasm but it will take you years to really make work that is conceptual and procedurally strong. It will take years of independent making and reading critical philosophy for you to produce work that doesn't ape historical references or that is cohesive with less deviation of style. The same with our city, it will take some time to turn the neglect into something else.
Lib, This conversation has turned into a thin skinned rant by the standard board tards.
