[Art Strike 1990-1993]
STEP UP.
The Art Strike. By definition it's decentralizing and anti-authoritative, designed to stop production and provoke discussion of and about art and the very limiting contexts in which art is defined and allowed to evolve and how that effec-tively determines and controls the lives of artists.

- STEP 3. Rebellion is encouraged. There is no movement of information in static systems and information always moves towards the dominant system.
- STEP 4. It always pays to fund the opposition. A potential threat is diffused through definition, duplication and dependence. A new market information for saturation and eventual consumption of the mutation.
- STEP 5. Stop.
