yet another one...
uh huh, yup, we ALL know how great and unbelievable the 60's-70's-80's-THE PAST-was-but could someone just live and create in the now please? Why is the regurgitation of the (recently/newly) rediscovered past so pervasive in our times and so compelling to most people? Trips down memory lane reminiscing are just too personal and totally boring, just as rehashing the movements and statements of the past are by unsophisticated artists and the lot. Maybe we can attribute the influence to that cringeworthy, pretentious, and obnoxious trend of abusing the term "informed by" in art speak OR just a lack of ability/talent all around? Hmmmmm. Even if it seems relevant, worthy, or inspirational it really isn't-just indulgent and common.
Maybe the Puyallup Fair would be a better venue to display this work for enjoyment and praise than an Art gallery.
And BTW-it was cooler in the hippie-regionalist craft and textile movements of the 70's.
…jus sayin'
