How to be Popular: Overheard on Twitter #5
2008-04-11 22:34:00 18 minute old Twitter account - 2 updates - 400 followers. The math doesn’t add up, does it? You know what happened? Jason Calacanis said “follow him.” (I took out my angst on the picture, can you tell?) I really enjoyed refreshing every 3 seconds to see another dozen or so followers adding Mr. Modine, and some ...

It's The Journey That's Important...
2007-08-14 10:28:00 By John McLeodLife, sometimes so wearying Is worth its weight in gold The experience of traveling Lends a wisdom that is old Beyond our 'living memory' A softly spoken prayer: "It's the journey that's important, Not the getting there!" Ins and outs and ups and downs Life's road meanders aimlessly? Or so it seems, but somehow Leads us where we need to be, And being simply human We oft question and compare.... "Is the journey so important Or the getting there?" And thus it's always been That question pondered down the ages By simple men with simple ways To wise and ancient sages.... How sweet then, quietly knowing Reaching destination fair: "It's the journey that's important, Not the getting there!"

2007-07-09 12:59:00 Gee's Bend quilts in BaltimoreDeborah McLeod was as impressed by the Quilts of Gee's Bend as I was when I saw the exhibition at the Corcoran in 2004. She reviews the exhibition, currently at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore through Aug. 26.Read Deborah's review here and just for kicks, see mine from three years ago below:The Quilts of Gee?s BendThere are some museum exhibitions that almost from the first seeds of their conception are destined to great success. And thus I will reveal in the second sentence that I will join the chorus of art critics, writers and curators across America who have lavished nothing but praise on ?The Quilts of Gee?s Bend,? currently on exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, DC until May 17, 2004.But in addition to the visual power that this exhibition brings to the viewer, I believe that it also teaches several lessons that I think have so far been missed, or perhaps avoided, by all the reviews and articles that I have read about t...

2007-01-25 16:15:02 McLeod on the Outwin Boochever Portrait CompetitionDeborah McLeod is the former Director of Exhibitions at the McLean Project for the Arts, a former Trawick Prize juror and currently resides in Baltimore, where she reviews art shows for the Baltimore City Paper. Below she writes about the Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition at the National Portrait Gallery.I wanted to write about the National Portrait Gallery Portrait Competition for several reasons that I should reveal before taking the plunge. The first impetus had much to do with my brother in law, Rick Weaver, and his response to the show as a perfection-driven mannerist painter as well as a participating artist; the second had to do with the thoughtful, if protectively benefit-of-the-doubt exhibition catalog essay by Dave Hickey, and a subsequent bombastic review by Blake Gopnik; the third involved my own personal uncertainties on arguing this far-ranging, provocative collection of works and the hope that writing about it mi... |
