I've got three letters for this show. U...G...H, ugh, yes ugh, I know that's not a word, but this work wasn't what I'd call "art" either. Now I know many would give me hell for saying that, but hey it's my opinion so I'll voice it however I want. Let's see where do I begin, a lot of the work that I saw in there was simply no different from what I've seen in other MG exhibitions. Concept, concept, and more concept. Did I mention concept? I see that art as half concept and half technique, but that show right there was mostly eighty-percent concept and twenty-percent artistic ability. In fact, I have a bone to pick with the vast majority of the art world; I don't call them artists, I call them posers and opportunists. People follow the art "trend" just because randomly splattering paint on a canvas in a single color or painting a geometric form on top of a photo is now the new thing; and guess what folks? IT'S EASY!
(I'll be back with more to say on this later)
