Was on Twitter and saw the back and forth between Saltz and Anadol and umm I’m curious to read thoughts about that exchange. 

From what I could tell, Saltz didn’t like Anadol’s work, they felt like it was unfair to criticize their work without understanding them, Saltz disagreed…some time later they connect.

So one of my questions is: 

Should we make space for art critics or at least very opinionated patrons of art? If so, how do we leverage them to elevate all art in the scene?

EYE (I) personally don’t think Anadol needed to get Saltz to see the light. Not everyone is gonna like the work even with context. And I’m not sure if it’s just me, but within web3 art spaces it has FELT like there’s no room for critique nor maturation of digitally native onchain mediums.

Saltz ain't a critique, did that on the thanksgiving on purpose with a despicable attention seeking language.

PS: I am not a fan of Anadol's work.
