    Salt Lake Art Center presents Branded and on Display, featuring works by 22 artists who examine the strategies of branding and retail presentation, as well as the pervasive marketing that colors our lives. American culture is defined by marketing and consumption, by shopping malls as community meeting places, and media saturated with product advertising. Even one of our founding fathers, Thomas Jefferson, was a compulsive shopper. Is this part of the American Way? Our lives are bracketed with purchases, and our visual landscape is studded with logos, brand names and billboards-inducements to acquire commodities. This exhibition urges us to 're-view' consumer culture with an appraising eye and increased awareness.
