Is there a canonical version/account of the idea that “the difference between craft and art is risk”? I’ve heard versions of this over the years but never thought to look for a specific source. I assume the risk meant is usually that of profaning sacredness. Is this right?

I find connoisseurship in general requires very little, either in terms of risk or intellect. I guess that was my point. Ok, so you’re Instagramming the hottest burger joint in NYC. Or drinking an $80 shot of tequila. So what?

Yeah no art content, barely any craft content either 🤔 You could even say that taste and tastelessness are only risky in shallow social ways. Nothing deeper is at stake.
