Weekend roundup

  • Roberta Smith loves Jasper Johns' other primary color.

  • On Sunday afternoon, when I wrote this post, the lead story on the LAT's arts and culture page was from Wednesday, Feb. 6. Awesome.

  • Scott Cantrell in the Dallas Morning News on JMW Turner at the DMA: "No artist has a greater claim to being the last of the traditionalists and the first of the moderns." I love parlor games such as this. I think my pick would be Goya.

  • The Washington Post's Blake Gopnik surveys the career of Phillips director-in-waiting Dorothy Kosinski and Q&As her here. (As Gopnik generously notes, MAN talked with Kosinski here and here.)

  • The Spiral Jetty story from a local angle: Patty Henetz in the Salt Lake Tribune includes some broader policy issues. (Less immediately, I'm still wondering: What about natural gas? Do any of the existing state/federal rules address natural gas extraction?)
