Christoph Büchel should learn from Jana Sterbak

Howdy!

There's way cool article in today's The Boston Globe about the fight between Mr. Büchel and MassMoCA. It sounds very similar to that which went down between Ms. Sterbak and the Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal back in 2003. It is a fight that Mr. Büchel is very unlikely to win. He needs MassMoCA way more than they need him.

To answer Giovanni Carmine's question at the end of the article, it gets done frequently. Two weeks ago I saw the Julius Popp show at Oboro where half of the exhibition was busted. And if you want follow up on how much of prima dona contemporary artists can be, Geoff Edgers has a partial list of Mr. Büchel's demands. Go! Joseph C. Thompson! Go!!
