Oh, I forgot to comment on the "burning books" idea.
No. I do not advocate anyone destroy masterpieces except the artists who are responsible for them. I would require that my art be destroyed after my death, as it has no further value. I would suggest other artists require the same. I would encourage the demystification of particular artists and works of art and the destruction of the idolatry associated with "greatness" as there is no such thing and the idea that there is is elitist nonsense. This destruction of masterpieces I advocate is conceptual - except for their actual destruction by the artists responsible for them as I described above. The rest of us should engage in the destruction of the ideas associated with propping up the baggage of cultural elitism as epitomized in the "masterpiece".
