I stuck with the safe definition of a professional analyst. Personally, I have a lot of trouble with being rational about works of art. It seems to me that analysis of works of art can easily become too rational and complex, and let the emotional essence of the Art (with a capital A) escape. In any case, I feel uncomfortable saying a show is "good" or "bad," and more comfortable saying I do or don't like it. Once I start to say why I like it, however, I am always afraid that the reasons I give are just spurious rationalizations for the subtle truth of feelings.
