The Packet

I'm the worst when it comes to blogging when I should. I write stuff down then I forget to blog and yea. Anyways, I thought the article that was given to us was pretty interesting. It's interesting how what is "in" in the arts can be compared to trends in fashion. What people want to see in galleries today is the new hip stuff and don't really credit or display older pieces. I don't know if my analogy makes much sense but it's like the clothes we where. You don't see people in bell bottoms and platform shoes because they're outdated and style has changed. Galleries display what people want to see today like the Rain Room instead of something less interactive like a painting. I'm sure this isn't entirely the case but that's kind of how I see it. People usually don't think things are cool unless everyone is following.
