bonjour tous,

moi aussi j'ai reçu le ^m message à l'identique d'Ian Miller de Ico Gallery, eh ben j'ai dit oui et il m'a dit que je serai contactée "shortly" par Skylor Brummans, le directeur. J'ai attendu patiémment 2 semaines et effectivement il m'a contacté, et voilà c maintenant que je commence à chercher car $2500 plus 50% de commis ça commence à faire...de quoi enrichir le Skylor... Je lance des recherches et j'ai trouvé Ico Gallery cité dans un forum d'artistes aux USA (les mêmes questions, les mêmes conclusions qu'ici) et je crois aussi au Portugal...) Ils ratissent large, ceux-là.

Dommage ce serait bien si c'était une avancée dans une carrière, mais ils profitent de nous pour payer à leur place.

Je suis tentée de voir jusqu'ou ça peut aller (sans m'engager), mais bon il y a sûrement beaucoup d'autre arnaqueurs. Il vaut mieux ne pas perdre du temps avec eux.

oui ,effectivement au debut c attirant, c bleu, pour peu que ca sente le lilas et qu on en ai glissé un paquet de douze sous la porte, c trompeur!!! c juste apres que ca sent la merde

voici une offre alléchante reçu ce matin...

a Y est demain je part à New York, bye bye les amis

Adieu l'expo "matière et mémoire", adieu les politiques langues de bois
vive la vrai anarque celle qui sent tout de suite la merde
