The Summer Internship

New post up for Art 21 on my summer internship experiences at the Gugg and the Met. See it here. If you haven't checked out the Met's "Connections" feature yet, you really should. Curators, educators, conservationists, interns, security guards and other Met Museum staff talk about their favorite works from the museum. What better place to start than with Hermes Knauer, the Armorer at the Met and one of the people I'm lucky enough to intern for this summer.

Charlie Finch loves Art Star's Pop Up Gallery

Katherine Newbegin, Hotel Slavija, Belgrade, Serbia, 2009

Writing in Artnet, Charlie Finch hails ArtStar's recent pop up show, "What Works," as the reason why the gallery model really isn't dead, even though we're all inundated with art fairs, temporary exhibition spaces and biennials.

Museum Education and the Pedagogic Turn

When is an artist an “artist” in the museum? When is something “pedagogic” and when it is “educational”?  My attempt to initiate a conversation about how we construct contemporary histories of art, and the hierarchies implied by the terms we use.  New piece for Artwrit Quarterly here.
