I ususally laugh about this kind of shit and move one.

A.L. L(st)ink:

Editorial art show
In conjunction with the Sioux Falls showing, editorial cartoonists from the region contributed work for an exhibit in the lower-level gallery. Their show is called “Lowbrow Lowdown on the Prairie.”

Deb Klebanoff, Arts Council executive director, smiles and mock-cringes when talking about the editorial cartoons since they contain opinion and satirical pieces about area subjects and politicians.

“But people have seen these in the newspaper, so they know it doesn’t necessarily express the opinion of the Art Council,” she says.

Meet some of the local artists during a reception from 1 to 3 p.m. Aug. 12.

I want to clarify, I was asked by Ken Alvine to be in this exhibit, it wasn’t my idea. I vowed a few years ago not to display in publicly funded facilities within SF for this reason. This constant contempt and ridicule towards local artists that are ‘different.’ Yet anytime I turn on Channel 16 that stupid ‘Diversity’ commercial is playing. Well guess what, diversity is about lot more then race, religion and culture, it is about different ideas. I don’t think our mayor or governor follow the rules, so I point it out for all to see, I really don’t care what the ‘arts council’ thinks.
