• The End of Neoliberal Art: Populism, Pluralism, and the Lessons of '76 (artforum.com) — Lewiston gets a brief spotlight through a 1975 Artpark “Citizens Time Capsule” project as part of a wide-ranging look at how the art world shifted from 1970s pluralism to today’s market-driven neoliberal system. The essay argues for more publicly supported, locally rooted, and genuinely populist cultural institutions, drawing lessons from the Bicentennial era for museums and artists now.
