Whom do I have the honor?
by Kevin Freitas
Taking a direct cue from Edward Winkleman's blog and a recent poll he conducted, I decided to find out, who's potentially reading Art as Authority. So, as The Who start singing in my head, Who are you, ... I really wanna know. kf
I woke up in a Soho doorwayA policeman knew my name
He said 'You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away'I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chairchorus:
Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
etc.

Hey, like Edward, you forgot ART HISTORIAN!

Whoops! Thanks Mark! The omission has since been rectified - no hard feelings all you Art historians out there, we love ya just as much!
After sampling Edward's poll and adding a couple more options, I still had this nagging feeling that I overlooked someone - et voila!

Good point Julien, I guess we're all activists at heart...
