The First Word on Aitken: Boo

posted by on January 17 at 19:01 PM

Richard Lacayo, the Time magazine writer on art and architecture who launched a blog recently, says the hyped Doug Aitken video thingy projected on the exterior walls of the Museum of Modern Art (it opened yesterday) is “predictable” and “sanitary”.

For those who relish the puncturing of an even easier target than media darling Aitken (who showed in 2005 at the Henry), here’s a good old YouTube parody of Matthew Barney’s Drawing Restraint 9. (Thanks, Craigmonster!)
