"The most inclusive description of the art is that, termite-like, it
feels its way through walls of particularization, with no sign that the
artist has any object in mind other than eating away the boundaries of his
art, and turning these boundaries into conditions of the next
accomplishment.
    "The best examples appear where the spotlight of culture is nowhere in
evidence, so that the craftsman can be ornery, wasteful, stubbornly
self-involved, doing go-for-broke art and not caring what comes of it."
--Manny Farber on "White Elephant Art vs. Termite Art," 1962
