like i said, an artist should be able to create freely, as i see it, regardless if the choice is in an isolated enviroment or in the middle of the street.
however, the above paragraph, from a different point of view (not acceptance/opinion of audience) rises question: you believe that there havent been great artists who created with in mind how their work will stimulate the audience, visually, aesthetically, spiritually, politically or any other way? like a duel effect coming from a person's creation.

Sure there are artists who focus on what their public will think, and use that to their advantage. I just don't think it's nessessary to always approach it in that way. I'd also like to add that you'll need some recognition for that to work.

seriously, being "doomed" is part of the game, i want to believe that sooner or later real talents and their work will always surface.

That second bit of my post has nothing to do with the first part. What I meant to say is that there's no point in counting your chickens before they hatch. To get respect in the art world, you have to first work very hard and befriend the right people. Part of being a good artist is having the ability to convince an art collector to purchase the work. Let the buyer(gallery) decide who views it.
