Indianapolis Art Critique Archive, 1999 to 2012
It's just a peak into the artists and exhibit spaces of that time.
Pieces are written for NUVO Newsweekly, the weekly alternative newspaper, and the daily, Indianapolis Star.
There are approximately 220 art critiques or brief "clips" as they were called, representing over 100 venues (from museums to coffee shops) and about 200 artists. About 65 group shows are spoken about as well. Overall, there are about 270 articles here.
NUVO's five star critique rating explained: A five star rating system applied to most of the NUVO pieces and were used to gauge the quality of exhibitions.
1 star: life’s too short
2 stars: not bad, needs some work
3 stars: good job
4 stars: excellent!
5 stars: life-altering experience
