The current exhibit at the Fullerton College Art Center in Santa Ana features The Cacophony Society. A group of "artists" who like surrealist sabotage, gluing toasters to light posts, filling teddy bears with cement and placing them on actual store shelves, and this is just the tame part of their activities. The exhibit itself is disturbing. The overtones are violent, depressing, destructive, and brutal. There is no positive energy in the exhibit. Just immaturity. One of the featured exhibits shows members in a bathroom rubbing what looks like excrement on themselves and others. We'd like to hope our kids stop playing with their poop by two years of age, not twenty! This society seems comprised of adults who do not want to grow up. Whereas the rest of us realized we must grow or die, this groups philosophy seems like they'd rather die then grow.
Keep the kids away from this one. Adults who feel nostalgic for their crazy adolescence can probably get a kick out of it.
