An artist prayed every day, year after year, for God to let him win the lottery.
Finally, one day, the artist became so frustrated he took a blank canvas and wrote "God is dead" in big red letters.
A thundering voice came out of nowhere and God said, "Oh come on! At least meet me half way and buy a lottery ticket."


A gallery owner walks past a man who is squatting with his pants down around his ankles crapping on busy a sidewalk in New York.
She stops, turns back to the man and asks: "Have I seen your work before?"


A man in New York went into a store to buy a can of Campbell's soup.
While paying for it the cashier told him he couldn't return it.
The man thought her comment was quite strange but he of course bought the soup anyway.
As he was walking home he noticed a gallery owner was following him.
As he walked faster, so did she.
Soon it became apparent to the man that hundreds of gallery owners were following him, all of them dressed in black.
The man stopped walking in order to confront the crowd, but they surrounded him.
They all began to grab desperately at the can of soup.
The man somehow struggled free with the soup still in his possession.
He ran towards the river and threw the can into it.
All of the gallery owners followed the can into the river and drowned.
Glad the ordeal was finally over, the man returned to the store to get another can of soup.
While paying for it the cashier said: "I told you you couldn't return it."


Why do artists want so badly to tell us their thoughts but go out of their way to render their message unintelligible?
When my dog is hungry, she finds a way to convey to me that message?
"I'm hungry. I need food."
But if artists are hungry and need food, they take rusted chains and wrap them around old VCR's.


Why do only ugly people go to the opera?
Why are people happier with print #1 when it's the same frickin thing as print #47 ?
Don't they know that artists always take print # 47 and write print # 1 on it?
