'Give unto me, made lowly wise,/The spirit of self-sacrifice;/The confidence of reason give/And in the light of Truth thy bondman let me live!'--W. Wordsworth, CCVIII. Ode to DutyTank funWillem de Kooning, 'Untitled (The Commuter),' (1971-72)Notebooks of a Naked YouthHe physically moves more and more towards the earth. He keeps resting his head to the pavement. He searches caves for monsters. He's obsessed with an ice-aged man found in the bog - so much so he names his band The Bogmen. This is the journal of a man living in the area which mainstream culture and society deems non-existent. He is trying to come to terms with the natural paradox of his situation and every sentence, paragraph, page, and chapter exhumes the corpse of this underlying dilemma. One chapter negates the last, as every sentence uttered by the narrator or every action performed out of self-loathing. Yet he is supremely proud and vain.On the floorStuckist Clown Non-Demo, 28 November 2000, at Tate Britain, the day of the Turner Prize announcement.  We ... took the opportunity to award the Anti Turner Prize Prize to the Art Clown of the Year for outstanding idiocy in the visual arts.  This was awarded to Charles Saatchi and was a pie to put in his own face.  He also had to buy the pie as we forgot to get one.We were simply exercising our democratic right to visit a gallery we had paid for through our taxes in the attire of our choice - as freely acknowledged by the Tate.
