The New York Times Mail Art Project. Part Nine. The Truth.

Art is never true. How can it be, when it is subject to the follies and obsessive passions of an artist? Reporters, on the other hand -- if they are not the paid toadies of a patron or enslaved servants of a tyrant -- are always looking for the truth behind the screen of public and private events. So who is more to be trusted to find the truth -- the artist or the journalist? Perhaps the question should rather be -- who is more to be pitied, the artist or the reporter? 
These mail art pieces answer none of those questions. They are like having radishes for breakfast -- the results are either questionable or indigestible.
