The Liars Club Manifesto:
Art is important because it is morally ambiguous. In this totally polarized culture –where we are alone, believing the various orthodoxies we find on our computers — each of us has come to imagine that we are are a crusader for what is right and what is wrong. WE NEED ART. Art offers no truth. It offers no answers; only questions, it shocks, upsets, and unsettles, and demands that we use our own minds and hearts to think, feel, explore undiscovered countries, and change our mind. Art is a LIE. This is why we need The Liars Club!
