- Treat light matters gravely, and grave matters lightly
- Always use your left hand to write and paint; unless you are left handed, which in that case you will do the opposite
- 1, 2, 3!
- Accept the un-accepted: invite the clergyman to your son's birthday
- Embrace the un-embraceable (hug a bureaucrat, hi-five a traffic warden, caress a civil servant)
- Be the devil's advocate (and charge him a bundle)
- In a public toilet; instead of shyness and embracement, be loud and extraverted.
- Attain a doctorate by writing your thesis on hot air balloon operators
- Favor showing works from pretty women rather than brooding unshaved painters
- Let your rabbi bless the unity of your nephew and his komodo dragon
- Hold exhibitions on top floors of building sites
- Invite the art critic to read his critique at the beginning of the show; the worse it is the better.
- Use cheap paint. You are not Rothschild; or Gauguin
- Invite a banana republic politician or diplomat to give you exhibition an air of dignity.
- Hire a big breasted secretary to dictate your thoughts
However remember: Fascistart is not done. It is. It was. It's Belgian waffles!
