SITE: The Hippie Biennial

Sante Fe keeps its hippie spirit even when holding an international art show. If SITE Santa Fe’s Sixth International Biennial is going for "visceral presence," they certainly got it:

Whoa. Mission accomplished! But the SITE site also claims, "Although one of the intentions of this Biennial is to put the visitor 'in the realm of the senses,' the senses aren’t meant to be overwhelmed." Uh, TOO LATE.

The Outsider Art Critic had the following conversation with a friend, the Grumpy Old Man:

OAC: Oh, man, Cathy, PLEASE!!
GOM: ohmygod. How huge is she?!? It looks like she's nursing a 12 year old.
OAC: Actually, the kid is 6 days old, he just really takes after his mother. . . .

I think I even prefer that turquoise and silver Navajo shit.
