Headline News... Tyler Green mentions Alias
OK, so I'm probably the only person in the world that thinks this is headline news, but it made me laugh. I look at Tyler's blog everyday and I also check in with Alias on TWoP, but I NEVER expect these two worlds to collide. Anyway, for those of you who read NEITHER site: TWoP is all about TV shows and it’s really funny, while Tyler Green only writes about art and the various art worlds on his blog, Modern Art Notes. It's a great blog - lots newsy bits about curators, museum directors, and IMO really good exhibition reviews. Today he skewers Charlie Finch for reviewing an exhibition he did not actually SEE. In the process he mentions a certain little TV show.
Karin Davie's "Pushed, Pulled, Depleted & Duplicated # 7"
is on view (for anyone who wants to go see it) at the Albright-Knox.
I probably won't be "shuffling off to Buffalo" to see this exhibition, either. And I probably will look at the catalog because the work seems interesting and I liked what Grachos was doing when he was Director at Site Santa Fe - but I will not be offering a review of said exhibition. That's just my own personal rule. Don't judge stuff until you've seen it, whether it's the Passion of The Christ or Nanny 911! (Which, I actually tried to watch once while I was waiting for 24 to start and I almost threw the TV out the window). I will, however, be offering a big fat Alias post soon, since (everyone knows) it's a show that I've actually seen.
This has nothing to do with anything. I just thought it was funny. Good charity, weird idea.

Glad you enjoyed the post. I'll try to put some more work up from this show later in the week - it's pretty fun to look at!

I love this painting. Lisa. Thank you for sharing it and introducing me to Davie's work.
