I am not unsympathetic to your viewpoint, Tim. Once upon a time, I worked in an art gallery. And I have spent a great deal of time strolling about art museums. I long ago concluded that collecting art takes almost as much talent as making it. If you have someone like Dana Gioia in charge, well that's one thing. But there aren't a lot of people of that caliber around.
