who freaking cares about the insight she's giving...you have speakers turn the sound down...I don't understand art snobs....you notice and complain and critique everything but the art...just sit back and enjoy Mr. Kalm has done the rest.

lame!

you are doing good things. I'm at art school in New Zealand and I never get to see how works are actually displayed. Thank you

lol look at her bodylanguage ´´what am i talking about? why does all those ppl follow me?´´

sometimes you have to choose your battles.....fighting about staff is tedious.

BUrN MoMA!!!!!

What is painting? Is it sculpture? Is it photography? We just don't know.

painting is the opportunity to take all of these things and fuck it up enough to get you mad

sorry.... my mistake. i realize we already had this discussion. mr. kalm speaks all the time about the shows he covers, i just think critiquing the staff at the museum of modern art is a little tedious.

dear mrWow, read more carefully. I didnt refer to the woman as being a dumbhole i didnt refer to this exhibition as not liking it i dont know if mr Kalm takes this show seriously (he seldomly speaks out about what he sees) I didnt gave my opinion on the exhibition and the work presented, some i actually like. i expressed my dislike of the arthistorians mumblejumble, which is in MY opinion lacking any real insight into the phenomenon of art, damaging the true virtues of good art.
