Hi Adam,

Now I should stress something. I don't necessarily agree that bonsai needs to "move beyond an outdated sentimentalism based on positive affirmation of supposedly real values". I simply chose these words as an attempted paraphrase of some who might criticise bonsai art as ineffectual what for being overly romantic.

That said, Nick's "Root over bowling ball" and some of his other more irreverent work might be as good an example as any.

Attila,

Well said. I agree with pretty much 100% of your post, but could not have expressed it so well myself. Thank you.

Best regards,
Carl
