My father had a valid point today, while we were at the Alfred Stevens exhibition in the Van Gogh museum and later at Burtynsky in Huis Marseille: showing your work is an attempt to establish a dialogue, even though you do not show your work to please the audience perse. I know this dialogue does not have to confine itself to the comment box under my blog (in my case), nor does it have to depend on it, but I welcome all thoughts and critiques.
