“… People have it good.”

If this is as good as it gets… we are in trouble! you know 99% of the local artist community is pinching pennies.

“…subversive potential in a situation in which no one is really paying too much attention.”

‘No One’ being the self-subverting mass culture aka our silent tax base or the art istocacy ?

“… meaning that the curator’s role almost resembles that of the artist,…”

Yes, almost. The artist lives the example, the curator packages it for consumption.

“….more casual and unexpected spaces and occasions for making and showing art…”

What like SWAMPSPACE maybe?
