In einer Reihe humorvoller, ironischer und trügerisch kluger Überlegungen präsentiert uns Babak Ganjei eine radikal neue Sicht auf das Manifest des Künstlers. Diese geschickten Prosastücke untersuchen Motivation, Inspiration und Einfluss und konkretisieren das Innenleben eines arbeitenden Künstlers im Moment. In Art is The Thing Nobody Asked You To Do versucht Ganjei zu verstehen, warum er die Dinge tut, die er tut, und versucht sich selbst davon zu überzeugen, dass es in Ordnung ist, dass es klappt.
