V--2nd, Chap 12, beginning (again)

[Mark Kohut]

p. 347     Climate of impermanence............TRP's satirization
of a certain kind of modern art?....of the interest by the unserious
who will never create real art?

Sand Sculpture today....the beach solidifies
http://www.happynews.com/news/9292010/artists-sand-sculptures-world-event.htm

There is a sand-castle tradition within Tibetan art..make and allow tide to wash 
away..
shows impermanence of all things.....but don't think any of those resonances 
apply here, you?

Is that 'great marble toilet' an homage/allusion to DuChamps Fountain 
(Urinal?)...and/or scoring imitators
who are just shitting themselves by 1956?
