World art: a boundary issue

Abstract 'World art', as an unbounded catagory, is questioned. Three boundaries, are brought into view, and each is defined by a paradox. These are a) the display and marketing potential of culturally-specific things, b) the measures to protect them and c) the consequent effect of uncritical advocacy. Certainly evident in British Columbia, these boundaries may have a wider resonance in 'world art', and as such may be highlighted in this journal.
