Recycled Art

Sharon’s goal is to “network the artistic community” and provide a venue for artists of all forms and functions. She has, she claims, “received celebrity endorsements,” for what it’s worth. She also makes much of the fact that this is a “clean zine” – meaning, “no pornography, obscenity, blasphemy and no negativity.” That last one translates as no criticism, and, it seems, no evaluative standards. All artists are equal: the conceptual giant puppetmaker; Dungeons and Dragons doodlers; Vonda Shepard; a guy that will airbrush Jerry Garcia onto the back of your denim jacket. But, as Sharon points out, RA is a “celebration of creativity,” and it certainly serves that purpose. (MD)
