Art Quote Monday- Greg Curnoe, artist

"Provincialism is what people do when they live, as they think, 'out there in the sticks' and they try to imitate what they think is hip in the big centers. Regionalism is simply what people are doing when that are at ease with themselves in their own environment."

Greg Curnoe- Canadian artist, co-founder of Carfac (1936-1992)

Regionalism is the real deal, and I like that! I grew up in the "sticks," and always found it amusing when people would try to emulate the big city style or attitude...LOL... Speaking of cities, will catch up with you next weekend when we're back from Vienna! :o) Happy Days, Shayla ((HUGS))
