Marcia Tucker used the title “Bad” Painting ironically for an exhibition of fourteen artists whose figurative work challenged accepted standards of taste and drawing. Their paintings mixed popular imagery, personal fantasy and art-historical references. The show questioned the idea that artistic value depends on progress towards a single formal ideal.
