You’re right in what the consumer brings to a piece matters just as much as the piece itself. But being able to process the piece at all is what I was trying to get at there, in a media literacy sense. It’s very easy to dismiss a piece of work due to a lack of media literacy (with caveat that it is possible to also be so up the ass of the institution that one makes art for which the only people who can find it comprehensible are other institution-saavy folks.)
