• Interview with John M. Bennett

    John M. Bennett is incredible. He’s an old school experimental writer. He takes no prisoners. He looks for new ways of expressing his ideas. And he finds anywhere he looks. His work ethic is insane and he can be considered to be “the man” in realm of experimental literature. He’s a go-to guy if you need to know something about being experimental all the time and not being ridiculous. His body of work is an example of how it is possible to steadily move forward for more th

  • ‘The Gallerist,’ an Art World Satire at Sundance, Offers Good Fun and Little to Think About

    The Gallerist, the most high-profile art world satire in some time, centers around Polina Polinski (Natalie Portman), a struggling gallerist on the verge of bankruptcy who’s betting it all on a one-artist debut at Art Basel Miami Beach. The gruesome (and very funny) accidental death of a particularly obnoxious art influencer, Dalton Hardberry (Zach Galifianakis), occurs just as the legendary dealer Marianne Gorman (Catherine Zeta-Jones)—a character with a very similar name to the lat
  • A ‘Rhythm 0’ for the TikTok Age

    In 1974, Marina Abramovic placed an assortment of items on a table. A rose, a gun, a knife, a feather, a pot of honey, a whip, and so on. Objects that could bring pleasure or pain. The audience was informed that those props could be used on Abramovic over the course of the next six hours, she would not resist them. It was a famous performance: what began with gentle, playful interaction quickly devolved into an act of violence. When the gallerist announced that the performance was over, the peop

  • Adolf Hitler’s Art Still Sells, as ‘Industry’ Just Reminded Us

    Adolf Hitler’s artistic ambitions may have died in a Vienna admissions office, but his watercolors remain surprisingly alive on the auction circuit—and, now, on prestige television.This week’s episode of HBO’s Industry features a quiet reveal that would have felt implausible if it weren’t so well documented: a tasteful watercolor of Neuschwanstein Castle turns out to be signed “A. Hitler.” The moment lands as satire, but it also reflects a

  • In New York, the Stakes are High for a Young Gallery Dedicated to Play

    A cold wind cuts through lower Manhattan, passing shuttered storefronts that once housed small galleries—some casualties of the rent crisis—before losing force at the corner of Broome and Chrystie Streets. There, a different kind of market experiment took shape. Last year, Spielzeug Gallery, a nomadic curatorial project had a turn as a brick-and-mortar commercial gallery, testing a model that reads almost anachronistic beside Tribeca: one in which chaos is not a pose, but the consequ

    Christie’s record-breaking sale of works from William I. Koch’s Western art collection may look like a one-off, but recent data suggest it fits into a wider, if uneven, revival of historical American art.
