7 days in the art world

I can imagine myself in a crit like this one. I was in one that was similar in LA during my graphic design class, we would all talk about the meaning behind our pieces and why we chose certain motifs before we got into the actual work. But i have some qualms with how the writer set up the whole book. She seems to have focused on the most intense pieces of the artist's world while completely leaving out parts of the art world where people have fun and enjoy their work. I feel like this creates a biased view of the art world that I personally disagree with based on other views of the art world I have seen (see: Helvetica).
