Judges have to be subjective in selecting work for shows. Shows ( I am
talking about exhibitions here) should have a theme ( or at least concept).
The ones that are the most successful are the ones that becomes a harmoniou=
s
statement; a successful execution of the original idea/theme. To be able to
do that, they have to be subjective, not necessarily with personal taste,
but definitely to make the show work. If the judge has a fine critical eye
to distinguish between high craftsmanship and bad and clumpy work and stick
to his/her guns, it must turn out successful.
Judges that take their job seriously will not put work in a show that does
not belong there, even if it is a well-known person's work. That being said=
:
Artists should read the guidelines for a show to see if their work will
fit in.
