Thanks, Iâm Just Looking (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The following exchange between a curator and me takes place during the press preview for the Armory Show. Curator: âThank you, Iâve been obsessed with money and lifting weights. How are you? Itâs been a while.â Me: âIâm okay, busy, you know ... Wait, did you say youâre âobsessed with moneyâ?â Curator: âNo, I said Iâm obsessed with RUNNING.â On the way back to the office, I pass by the New Museum on the Lower East Side, which has just opened a major Arthur Jafa retrospec
The Armory Show in One Sentence (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I wish I could tell you that the Armory Show this year was radically different or better than recent editions at the Javits Center in Manhattan, but it was the same melange of dreadful hotel-lobby art next to countless inoffensive works that “explore identity and memory” with only a slim minority of memorable standouts, many of which were in the Focus section, dedicated to art from the Caribbean and curated by the phenomenal María Elena Ortiz of the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, and although

Appearing between ads for tomato sauce and a Mexican restaurant, the 42-second LED animation bewildered New Yo
