Art...lite

In a world of confounding and challenging and not easily accessible contemporary art, of limited educational experiences with art, of few opportunities to engage the artists who make the art, the result is art lite.

--an evening of making a cheesy painting with friends while drinking champagne

--adult coloring books

--glittery openings around the art where you get to be seen but don't actually have to engage the art

--museum events where the art is wallpaper and the real attractions are the DJ's and the dancing

--TV dramas and commercials where art creates classy ambience but nobody is actually looking at it

Art lite.
