Arts Lee Rosenbaum’s Take on SAM
posted by on July 17 at 20:46 PM
It’s in the Wall Street Journal, it’s conspicuously late (although not as late as the maybe-never New York Times), and Lee Rosenbaum has a middling opinion of the new Seattle Art Museum.
If you look at her blog, you can see that she rocks a fanny pack: http://www.artsjournal.com/culturegrrl/culturegrrl.JPG
Maybe never? Hah! The NYT doesn't know the west coast exists, except for when they're printing what the Hammer tells them, heh heh.
Interesting critique. It is funny to me that the building this much criticism (criticism in the sense of review, not judgment). It is a different take on the typical museum and should be recognized as such, but for some reason, that is being overlooked in large part.
Also, kudos to you, Jen, and The Stranger, for being referenced. Granted, he didn't necessarily agree with your perspective, but what does an old fart know anyway.
