NY Times ArtsBeat Goes Visual in Venice

Yes! The NY Times ArtsBeat blog has announced (in its righthand column) that it's going to be covering "art in Venice." I'd been hoping The Beat would pound at this summer's European art fairs and festivals. Now it will! But while it's at the Venice Biennale (opening to the public, beginning Saturday, to Nov. 21), is the Times going to cover this dispute?

If they'd also blog Art Basel (June 13-17) and Documenta June 16-Sept. 23), they'd really be onto something.

Meanwhile, Linda Sandler of Bloomberg already seems to have all bases covered.
