I saw this exhibit on Friday and liked it very much. I'm told (I
haven't checked it out myself) it has a terrific website.

"Decorative" was one of the most pejorative words that could be said
about a painting when I was a young artist....Words like "strong,"
"powerful," and "tough" were juxtaposed against "pretty," "soft," and
"decorative," and these words were loaded with value judgments. I call
it the dumb blonde theory of art: if it's beautiful, it can't be
intelligent.
