At the very least there should be some sort of "art antivirus" to put a stop to people satiring people who mocked the art world.

there is too much art, and too many artists.

This is the best image you've posted in ages.

Jen,

I admire your decision to step ever further out from behind the cloak of reticence you sometimes adopt when it comes to critiquing the Currently Hanging. People will never agree with all your opinions, but I respect the fact you share them (more than I respect the simple ability to post a work of art sans commentary).

As you said, these were posted earlier on Slog and I hated them then. I hate them now.

Whaaaa! I wasn't short-listed for the TAM biennial. But then again, I don't create work that "flirt(s) with advertising (in a) risky and post-ironic and fun" way.

Seconding Vermillion's great happy hour. Their prices on small bites are fantastic! The beets were delicious, along with the salamis and cheeses. Swing by.

I agree with JTC @4 about your decision to sometimes include commentary on these posts.

And your commentary on this piece/artist was tactfully put and...well...right.

this from the same critic who gives Jack Daws good reviews?

It’s grating, shallow, and self-satisfied. YOUR WARDROBE. I’m sorry to be so rude, but I honestly never thought I’d actually have to come out and say it, because I didn’t think it would rise to the level of unpleasant . Where did you THINK it would rise to? Really, I would love to know. It might help explane much of your spew. But why on earth, ARE YOU, Jen Graves, getting so much play? Wait, your not. Your so all over the board my head spins just thinking about your next EJECT.

What artist doesn't want to be ubiquitous?

Why are the local critics so cranky about this exhibit & this artist?! It is meant to be a humorous show, with some historical insight. So far the curators and out of state collectors that have actually come in to see this get it, & laugh, & buy his work as well.

Jen,

I love ya, but hey ouch! Why are you pulling the tape off so fast?
