How could we go about telling the world \u2014 and our fellow Utahns \u2013about about our visual arts community? What\u2019s the right tone,? What will attract attention and give people a sense of what we are about? Would \u201cArt Elevated\u201d work? We\u00a0<em>do<\/em>\u00a0have art and we\u00a0<em>are<\/em>\u00a0above 4000 feet; but anyone who has been here in our winter inversion knows we\u2019re not quite elevated enough (see below below for Alex Haworth Johnstone\u2019s \u201cSmog Lake City\u201d). Should we co-opt another already established slogan, search for a tie-in with one of our biggest tourist attractions and tell everyone we have the \u201cGreatest Art on Earth.\u201d We could, but would anyone buy that?<\/p>\n<p>We scrapped those ideas and began toying around with more modest approaches. \u201cUtah Art: Not Nearly as Bad as Wyoming\u2019s\u201d came up. It could be part of a campaign, to be followed by, \u201cUtah Art: Way Better than Idaho\u2019s.\u201d And that\u2019s as far as we got before our creative energies had to be turned to putting out this month\u2019s edition.<\/p>\n<p>Have a better idea for how to brand the Utah art world and get our message out to the world?
