If Ivan Massow is 32...
If Ivan Massow is 32, I'm a hatstand - but other than that, I found this interview with my favourite ex-Conservative, "Gay who lost heart for the Tory fight" to be entirely absorbing. It's interesting watching the press try and get a handle on him - is he a (i) big girly poof or is he (ii) a pseudo-aristo or is he (iii) pretty down-to-earth. As far as I could tell when I met him, he was a pretty foxy playful bloke with too much money (I suspect he'd agree), a reasonable dose of liberal guilt, and a little too much time on his hands. Doesn't seem that complicated to me.

His viewpoint on the contemporary art scene is, in my opinion, completely accurate, and high time that someone in his position should make. It made its mark, hence the outcome. The outcome of course emphasised the validity of his opinion. A nice circularity.
