This is the underground in the rough, type in the address www.intersektart.com and you’re here. Action is the algorithm, and the algorithm is the word. Press your face up against the screen and there you are; pixels and stardust. This is the true underground brought to you by the engineers of culture, often imitated but never duplicated. As we are all cast upon this modern stage of absurdity, we are all equals in the game, and the game is more absurd than ever before.
A strange, P.C. bred, quasi-puritanical mass mentality is fostering an environment which is anathema to art itself, but which prevails in the arena of Art World. It is an attitude that the artist is free to express him/herself under certain conditions which are often motivated by certain gender politics and crypto-fascist double speak. It restricts artists by laying out certain criteria that one must follow in order to not be vilified by the current standards of society and slapped with a defaming label such as misogynist or bigot, and it thusly makes cowards of both established and emerging artists who follow such criteria. Our job as artists is not to build careers which affirm the established order or its philosophies (if you want to follow that methodology you will fair better as a banker or lawyer), rather our purpose is to tear it asunder and forge new paths, by any means necessary. Perhaps Duchamp summed it up best when he said “In my day artists wanted to be outcasts, pariahs. Now they are all integrated into society”. So, what is the antidote to this quandary? If you are a painter: paint the revolution. If you are a draftsman: draw your own line. And if you are a sculptor, then remember that the most beautiful sculpture is a paving stone thrown at a gallerist's head.

A great specter is looming over the art world: the specter of Inter|Sekt. For far too long we have watched the artists of our generation turned into a disposable commodity, bought and sold by the galleries, stifled in their expression by the tastes of the art consultants who purchase pieces on behalf of financially minded clients who want a "solid investment".
They have been amalgamated into schools, said schools are a device of gallerists and art historians to divide and conquer the creatives and free thinkers. For we live in a nation which thinks itself to be free yet is not, they expect the same of their artists. Our culture has been raped and plundered by the upper echelon, picked apart and sold by the same greed mongers who claim to be it's patrons. The tool which has most effectively stunted the growth of modern American art in particular is the clever indoctrination of this idea of schools to not only the art student but anyone whom even reads a brief survey of the history of art sees that it is broken up into these categorized schools; the philosophies of these various sects creates conflict, division, and ultimately destruction of the morale and submission to the established order. Thus rendering the creative spirit confused and useless. This helps curb the rebellious spirit of the average citizen outside of the art world in other spheres of society. Art history is a lie and galleries are dens of thieves! Inter|Sekt is not destroying the schools or the galleries, we are simply showing you they were never real, at least not in a world outside of that constructed by academics to sell text books to art students. The reign of the gallerists and art consultants is over when you want it to be. From the ashes of the indoctrinated schools of every form of art shall arise The New World Creative. -Steven Lee Matz- The inter|sekt manifesto
