“Not only is COLOR POP! the only title that Wenngren and Rosenwald could both agree upon, but a pretty good description of a down-to-earth sensibility missing in the art world: ‘It Is What It Is.’ While there is an important place for challenging, subversive political art, this ain’t it. These are all painted with a sure sensibility and great skill, but – just this once – without the slightest intention of exposing the world’s problems, much less solving them. This art is a vote for beauty, for intelligence, for the sublime power of pure color. Aren’t we lucky to be able to see? Perhaps the most radical thing we can be in these dark times is cheerful.”
