We all know how busy Kanye is these days, but it is heartening to see his recent public statements, reasserting his commitment to #contemporaryart and reminding the world of the myriad ways it could, and would, benefit from the long unrealised promise of a #BiennalYe. KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest (16 March 2016) Fixing Wolves 2day... Worked on it for 3 weeks. Life Of Pablo is a living breathing changing creative expression. #contemporaryart Already acknowledged, and self-identifying, as a (or perhaps THE) 21C Pop Artist, Ye's ever-morphing TLOP emulates the slippery impermanence and impossibility of authoritative finality within the rapid stream of the Information Age, whilst asserting his commitment to immaterially over marketable product. It was 11 years before the director's cut of Blade Runner was released, presenting us with an alternative ending that destabilised ideas of the pop cultural canon. For The Life of Pablo, Ye invites us to witness his album as a director's cut in progress, undergoing constant evolution; a wholly modern creative product with its own animate breath. KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest (14 March 2016) My tweets are a form of contemporary art only compromised by people trying to tell me what to tweet and not to tweet... Ye's polymathy knows no bounds. Hijacking social media as a space for concrete poetry and experimental fiction, he presents his tweets as a form of mail art for the networked age. A Ray Johnson for the masses. KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest (14 March 2016) no one can ask me or try to tell me what to Instagram... It's my art... Watch out Amalia Ulman. Let's make the #BiennalYe happen so we can watch Ye on Venice's cultural throne (before he is too busy being creative director of Hermés whilst working on three albums a year). The final words on the matter however belong, as ever, to Kanye. For on the day of the #BiennalYe: KANYE WEST ‏‪@kanyewest‬ (8 March 2016) Together we stand… we win… the future thinkers win… 
the artists win... the thinkers win… the pure of heart win… we win
