For the last two weeks you could do a Google search for David Zwirner, and Donald Trump’s picture would come up. Someone on the Zwirner team appears to have corrected the google issue, but we got a screenshot! [via: tips@artfcity.com]

We’ll all have one earbud in at the AFC office today. “Ten Songs That Saved Your Life” is an online archive where you can stream custom playlists by the likes of Hans Ulrich Obrist, AA Bronson, Cory Arcangel, Robert Longo, Mike Kelley, Gerand Malanga and so many more.

Stephanie Smith’s boyfriend told her she was 300 sandwiches away from an engagement ring. So she started a blog, and documented each sandwich she made for her boyfriend as she woos him into engagement. A joke gone too far? [The New York Post]
And just as the 10th anniversary of his death approaches… Madonna performed what is possibly Elliott Smith’s most tortured song at Gagosian Gallery on Tuesday as a performance art publicity stunt for her new film. The 10th anniversary of Smith’s death is next month. After singing down on her knees, Madonna then used the stage to denounce the prison system and call for a revolution of artists “who are not worried about whether their ass looks good—although it is important to have a good-looking ass…”[Gothamist]
