I espoused a very similar statement with regards Andy Warhol on Saturday night. Have you noticed that rarely will someone talk about their emotional attachment to a G&G or a Warhol, but will endlessly circumvent their entrepreneurial nous? Also, both Warhol and G&G have a strong Catholic element to their work - Warhol's screen tests as confessional.
I find G&G moderately diverting; Warhol annoys me endlessly. No artist is deserved of any position, in many respects, but it doesn't concern me when the odd one gets remunderation for their efforts, whether I like their efforts or not.
