PILOT: Q&A BOOKS
For each of these pocket-size books, we asked a wide range of art-world practitioners to respond to three questions. These are deliberately direct, to emulate a wide range of reactions on a subject that tickled us at the time. We have left the answers uncensored and unedited, to reflects at best the wealth of views and reactions that seldom appears in more official art media.
