| exhibition archive The Discerning Eye Exhibition 2001 10th exhibition ~ 16 to 25 November 2001 What a privilege in this anti-elitist age to be a Discerning Eye! In this exhibition you will be afflicted with none of the horrors of committee-speak or political correction. There are no quotas of artist from Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland or England. From the disabled, ethnic minorities, women, the gay community and heaven alone knows who else. There is not as much as a flicker of positive discrimination. The Discerning Eye recognises that some of us have been blessed with such an attribute, just as others can speak languages or play football superbly. It allows the judges to use their eye in an idiosyncratic manner as they think fit. What struck me most about the judges is that each recognised that the other had a particular vision, not one shared but all equally respected. I recall also the deadly silence which greeted work which, regardless of style or idiom, fell short. Mercifully the quest for excellence is not yet dead. | 5/1 | Tragical Performance | £500 |
