dear Cuthbert,

perhaps you mean "some of the people from the art collective" which 
makes sense. we're having a meeting today, when this proposal will be 
re-raised: to have some sort of event allowing us to raise some funds 
against short falls to come.

it's widely known that art spaces are usually funded, or subsidised, in 
matilda's case a different solution has to be found.

in relation to the money problem, let's hope everything has been sorted 
out this time. However, in my defense, inasmuch as i've been concerned 
with the art space collective, this current artshow was well submitted 
and prepared IN THEORY, on the paper, and that's why it was approved.
Yet IN PRACTICE some good proposals did not materialize: informing 
matilda, giving matilda persons a right to view the artwork to be 
submitted and other details (i remember all this was published on the 
wiki some time ago)... which would have allowed matilda's persons to 
become more involved in this specific artshow.

imho, as i will try to explain to my collective, some more meetings 
amongst us were needed, to check that the *theory*, the procedures as 
approved, were *effectively* carried out: it was not clear at the time, 
anyway, whose responsibility this was.

for future artshows, we need to sit down and talk. The argument that our 
ages together amount to approx. five hundred years of personal history 
does not make up for this need to hold more regular meetings. Some 
persons may think that they are aware of what is happening, transpiring, 
etc. But decisions made in common may in the future spare us all this 
kind of little problems and general uncertainty.


As Mark's previous message pointed out, it has to become very clear to 
all that one thing is this particular artshow, with its specific 
curators or organizers, or any other artshow to be held at matilda, and 
another is the art collective and its members. How do we relate and make 
clear our respective duties? this needs to be discussed. If we want 
autonomy, we need to be responsible.

speaking for myself,


see ya later
