not odd at all, imo
this goes to the very core of the hypocrisy you have to get used to if you want to succeed in this thing. if you want to sell work, you need a gallery to represent you to potential collectors. if a gallery wants their cut on the sale, they will market yr stuff using over-simplified labels. and if you're lucky and a critic comes to interview you and you want to continue to sell work, you just nod and say, "yes, how amazingly perceptive of you, i do in fact fit this ism you speak of." ....and then you have to figure out how to sleep at night....
blech... it makes me want to puke. and yet this is what i dream of.
