Breuer Building Expands the Imagination, and the Budget, of the Met
The new Met Breuer museum will cost $17 million each year to run. The Met also spent millions upgrading and rebranding the building.The Breuer building is a piece of sculpture.
It is similar to the Wright Gugenheim in that.
It is only incidentally a gallery space.
The building requires a curatorial approach.
The museum board should stop whining.

Where China Goes to Chill
A trip to the ancient city of Chengdu, where the pace is slow, the food is spicy and there’s always time for a good gossip over a cup of tea.The China that was is best learned from books.
I am not fluent or literate in the Chinese languages.
I am not enough of a scholar to learn directly from the archaeological record.
I have little reason to go there.
