Dirty Dancing Festival in Lake Lure, NC - Home We Had The Time Of Our Lives Thank you to everyone who came out in the rain for some Dirty Dancing fun Your positive energy and support made it a great time for all - we barely noticed the raindrops, and a lot of you were dancing through them. Too Much Is Just Right: The Legacy of Pattern and Decoration features more than 70 artworks in an array of media from both the original time frame of the Pattern and Decoration movement, as well as contemporary artworks created between 1985 and the present. These artists did so by incorporating opulence and bold intricacies garnered from such wide-ranging inspirations as United States quilt-making and Islamic architecture. A remake of the 1987 classic 'Dirty Dancing' has renewed its commitment to the Asheville area, according to information released by the NC Department of Commerce on Friday. A percentage of the proceeds from the festival will be donated to. Tickets for Saturday’s festivities are 25 for adults, 10 for children, and group tickets are discounted to 22.50 (for 10 attendees and up). From 1972 to 1985, artists in the Pattern and Decoration movement worked to expand the visual vocabulary of contemporary art to include ethnically and culturally diverse options that eradicated the barriers between fine art and craft and questioned the dominant minimalist aesthetic. Tickets for Friday night’s festivities start at 10 for adults, 5 for children, and group prices (for 10 attendees and up) are 8. Unsurprisingly, these decades generated a reconsideration of the idea of pattern and decoration as a third option to figuration and abstraction in art. In the past 50 years in the United States and beyond, artists have sought to break down social and political hierarchies that include issues of identity, gender, power, race, authority, and authenticity. This Exhibition features more than 70 artworks in an array of media from both the original time frame of the Pattern and Decoration movement
