NM’s Brooklyn Combine feeds a firestorm opinion and a call for the Brooklyn Museum to do more for local artists.
A month after Norte Maar's hugely successful Brooklyn Performance Combine at the Brooklyn Museum, the event is being recognized for its celebration of Brooklyn based artists and performers. Critic, James Panero in his monthly column in The New Criterion, juxtaposed the inclusive nature of the event with the seemingly exclusive even divisive omission of artists in the Brooklyn Museum's current exhibition Crossing Brooklyn.
"To be a Lady" featured in The New Criterion.
James Panero, one of the great art critics of our time, dedicates his entire Gallery Chronicle in the November issue of The New Criterion to the discussion of the To be a Lady exhibition..."Panero writes:"I can pretty much imagine how the show To be a Lady: forty-five women in the arts took shape. Jason Andrew, the curator of this exhibition of female artists that spans a century and focuses significantly—but not exclusively—on abstract painting and sculpture, has one of the most observant eyes in art.
