Abstract
This thesis writing is a short personal essay and narrative account of the art, social, and private life of its author. This writing is an attempt to outline the question of what it means to be an American contemporary artist and what it means to want to be an American contemporary artist. This writing is an attempt to outline what is the function or expectation of contemporary art, and what is our desire for it. When I say outline I mean the shadow and not what casts it.
