On the other hand..
'Youth is Wasted', a show by Mark Hansel at Jack the Pelican is a waste of time. Poorly executed with vacuous subject matter, this show encapsulates a lot of things I don't like about the current art scene. There are artists that deal with youth well - Ryan McGinley for one in his depiction of transient moments and aspects of youth that slip beyond our grasp. But here Hansel merely offers bland idealized stereotypes that smack more of the extended childhoods of Williamsburg 20 somethings (and 30 somethings for that matter) than any real celebration or evocation of youth.
