Curation LIst

I'll be using this space to make some curatorial lists.

First, photos without their emulsion.

Richard Galpin



Curtis Mann
Who showed at Howard Yezerski in March. I think this was a successful show. I fully enjoyed it.

Chicago


I got a crush on Chitown right now. (other than their b-ball team... damn game 7)





Olafur Eliasson is up at the MCA.

AIC has a show of Multiples and Works on Paper that haven't been seen in a while. And is about to have a Cy Twombly show of recent work.

Jen Thomas is at Vespine

Ann Nathan has up Ben Duke and Christopher Klein (painters? recommended by me? Every now and then a brush can be used to make art...)

Post-season, hell yeah.

If I may.

The 6th game for Boston will not be easy, but experience will win over rookies. I hate this series no matter how exciting it has been. And yes, Rondo deserved a F1 for that hit. But let's move on kids. Lot's more basketball to play.

Birdman
is the opposite of Mikki "6 fouls" Moore. We chose wrong.

And speaking of Denver, you may ask WTF? 58 point difference? What happened! Well, N.O. happened. They are porous in defense for sure. A mediocre bunch (minus their one great player). Let's be honest, both squads are long term mid-grade NBA players. But I'd take Denver's mix of speed and flexiblity on the court. They may be my second favorite squad in the league right now, and the clear leader for the western conf.

I don't fear either 76'ers or Orlando. It should be a Clevland/Boston conference finals. But the internet is full of pigheaded information and slander, so that's why they play the games.

Gotta go print and miss the game. Effin work...

Modernism


Much like it's hard to see how Modernism was influenced by Poussin.


I think we find it very hard to hear the revolutionary modernism in Debussy today.


It does not mean that it is not there, but it is hard for us to locate the influence sometimes. We skip the influences to the actualities.
