    Always a provocateur, Navarro has even taken jabs at the art world, which he says is now ruled by the principles of consumerism instead of creativity... it’s a Dan Flavin on wheels.They are latter-day Robin Hoods, stealing “power” from the rich (the art world, the government) to give to the poor. Navarro’s cart is empty. But when it lights up, it gives off a blinding white glow. Perhaps there is hope after all.M. Egan, “ShockTactics,” The NewYorkTimes Magazine, November 4, 2007
