- Across the country, the job market still sucks. In a cost-cutting measure the Indianapolis Museum of Art has slashed 11% of its staff positions. The blame has been placed on the museum’s dwindling endowment. [Indiana Public Media]
- Tyler Green then slammed Indianapolis Museum of Art director Charles Venable for laying off 21 people and then tweeting about his lunch at an “opulent Beijing eatery.” This is the type of targeted, meaningful criticism we like to see from Green. [ARTinfo]
- With Land Art, we think of art and dirt. Nicholas O’Brien, on the other hand, thinks of digitally produced work, and in his latest piece for Bad at Sports, he does a bang up job defining the difference between “place” and “space” on the web. [Bad at Sports]
- Yes, Studio 360, we are fully aware that teakettle-Hitler portraitist Charles Krafft is a Holocaust denier, but we doubt he was anyone’s “favorite artist”. [Studio 360]
- In Skate’s new Art Market Hangout, Artsy, Paddle8, artspace, and others discuss the “meaningful benefits” in the “value chain” of displaying and selling art online. It’s “greater liquidity.” Stick a knife in me, Sergey. [Skate. Temperamental link.]
- Oh man. The Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (NSCAD) is being threatened with a provincially mandated amalgamation. Dalhousie, a behemoth university, well-known for its law program, is the looking like the most likely candidate. The school has a 17.4 million dollar debt. Over the last 40-some years, NSCAD has been a shaping force in the Canadian and American art scene. (My article on NSCAD faculty member Gerald Ferguson, here.) [Globe and Mail]
- Yesterday, Carolina Miranda tweeted gender disparity in the literary world, in pie charts. Nobody’s innocent. [cmonstah]
- Greg Allen wants you to drop him a line if you or anyone you know was in the Poindexter Gallery show in 1958-9, and have a checklist or installation photo. He’s trying to document the early history of Robert Rauschenberg’s Erased DeKooning drawing, which he believes may have been completed by Jasper Johns. [Greg.org]
