Let It Be...
...rea Arts Fest
Went to the the Berea Arts Fest on Sunday.
This has to be one of the most ho-hum, unchallenging, consumer-oriented mainstream art show ever. Don't look for any challenging pieces or installations here, no no. And definitely don't look for any young, cutting-edge, dynamic Cleveland artists here, either.
But if you're a middle-aged mom from Strongsville who just happens to be good at making crap out of beads or clay or broken glass, well then set your tent up and sell sell sell.
Some of the best art was the kids' sidewalk art.
There were actually some thoughtful 9/11-type tribute pieces chalked on the sidewalk. Lots of peace signs and SpongeBob too.
These were some of the mildly interesting and somewhat creative efforts at this otherwise Cain-Park-Look-Alike-Ish Fest. I think the most challenging thing I saw while I was there was the Pop Shop Art For a Quarter Machine.
I like the idea of quarter art.
And how lucky was I to see the Fake John and the Fake George strutting toward the bandstand to perform Eight Days A Week...
It was hot and uncomfortably crowded with old people and crappy silver earrings and lots of watercolors of barns and trees and waterfalls and stuff and I missed the Browns game for THIS?
