		<description><![CDATA[Dear VoCA readers,
Should VoCA be more critical?
I&#8217;m starting to feel (again) that Toronto is one big artistic love-in, when the fact is that a lot of art being made today is just not very good.  (Thank you Jerry Saltz for backing me up on this.)  The danger is that really good work is [...]]]></description>
