A taste of the Past to tell of the Future- Zeitgeist: Marilyn Minter

During the month of September, we pain the end of summer days. However for the Artworld...tis the season. For the upcoming Fall 2009 opening kickoff, I would like to start with our first course by remembering "the spirit of the times", the beautiful and fruitful taste of Marilyn Minter's Green Pink Caviar.

Her exhibition at Salon 94, New York this past summer was not only translated in the accomplishment of what she calls "photoreplacement" paintings, but her video project (ad for her show), which was featured in Times Square, was alone a conception of tasteful luxury and fashionable aesthetics. It reflected and rocked the ironic pallet of our economic values, which allows us to salivate and savor the times that we are in, hoping that it has inspired the sybarites of art, and a standard of what is to come this Fall. Don't worry there will be a Marily Minter exhibition coming to LA in October at Regen Projects.
So enjoy her video because it taste oh so good!!

Stay tuned, as this upcoming Fall I will be evaluating not only the beauty of art that is daring, but the epicurean taste of collectors and artist conspiracies, here at The Notorious and The Darling.
