" without tradition, we must continually rediscover what previous generations knew intuitively, knew from tradition, while discarding solutions that worked and which could have been developed, extended, combined with novel phenomena or filtered through a new artist’s self to make art that extends tradition, rather than childishly pretending not to care about it."

"The central problem of voluntary or community action in a neoliberal society is this: it is far easier to move from the realm of gift exchange to the realm of calculated exchange than it is to do the opposite. Where calculation and a calculating mindset is pushed further into the realm of informal social relationships, via audit, managerialism and social media, it becomes extremely difficult to suddenly appeal to the power of 'society' to reverse this or alleviate its malign effects"
