Hi all, Just a quick side-note about the author of this article. Kimmelman's an interesting, thoughtful guy. He's been willing, in the past, to spend long hours watching and documenting art actually being made, not simply judging it in a gallery environment. His book "The Accidental Masterpiece: On the Art of Life and Vice Versa" is worth reading. I have mixed reactions to the article. I wish he'd have had more space to explore the topic. This seemed to barely scratch the surface, then a quick, punchy conclusion. He's done much better; that could be a function of how many column inches he had available. -David
