    Art Shack is something of a shock...but in the best sense...a wake-up call to anyone lolling on the sands of Laguna or elsewhere, believing there is no other life than one of comfort and plenty!! On the aesthetic side...most of the artists have given ugly a turn into a kind of grim beauty. There is much to ponder and be moved by here.
