Bulletin should give it a rest

Letters

Editor: The artist Carel Moiseiwitsch probably has had her wildest dreams fulfilled with all the attention that her exhibition has received from the Bulletin. And what did you expect the administrator of this out-of-the-way gallery to say? "Yes, we know the show is anti-Israel and we are also pro-Palestinian, so are pleased to hang it."? Of course she needed to be discreet with the public funding of the gallery. And what about the chapbook? You have published an example of the schmutz (dirt) that no newspaper of note would do.

Give it a rest. Artists get notions and include them in their art. Curators can and do make editorial decisions. Ignore it. Don't write about it any more and, certainly, don't go and see it. There are far more important issues to deal with during these difficult times.
