I happen to believe there can be no bigger, better art work/ game/ life purpose than trying to help make a "better" universe, however you might prefer to define that. If you agree, you might rhyme with this.

Product Placement in Art Museums
The recent New York Times article about galleries paying museums to help finance exhibitions of artists represented by said galleries reminded me of a comment by David Lynch:
Also, the common view of politicians' solicitation of donations as "shakedowns."
Fine if you're an open, paid advocate for a certain party or point of view; not so fine if you purport to represent the general public or an independent point of view. The apparent conflict of interest undermines public confidence in the integrity of public institutions.
That said, I love the look of Takashi Murakami's platinum and aluminum Golden Buddha in the first pic above.
(Thanks to snarky for the tip on the Lynch clip!)
