(declarative voice)
Secrets are everywhere:
Social Science unmasks restraints,
Journalists blow the whistle,
Insiders leak to the press,
Investigators......
Secrets waver between
concealment and revelation, are
probed and shielded, yield equally to
moral concern and ethical goose-chases
or resist both with obedience,
blind or otherwise. Secrets are the
stuff of State and Mind, from A for
autobiography to Z for Zealot.
Select artists’ secrets, i.e.: is a
secret, acts as or is like a secret,
refers to secrets or requests them,
masquerades as or masks a secret.

Videogame is going to be the next medium to be considered an art form per se. “Insert Coin” features at the same time technological artefacts, modern, and more “traditional” works (paintings, installations and performances) and an exposition of Postal Art. The immaterial sculpture of software meets the physics of Mail Art in the concept of playable network. :)
