What was most disappointing about Daniel Grants story?
This book seems like it was written in the 80s. It tells you what you should beware of when ordering from a mail order catalogue (nothing insightful, simply "check the return policy etc).
Its not especially analytical just reels off excessive information, making it hard to decipher which bits are important. i.e. the potential threats of every single chemical possibly found in art products, but doesn't indicate which you are likely to come across, or which is most likely to put you at risk in your current day art practice.
How could the performance have been better?
