  1. Pulitzer Foundation without Pulitzer art? Who knew? Ando's forbidding exterior, next door to welcoming Cloepfil museum. http://bit.ly/8WXfZU
  2. Ambitious museum expansion plan is downsized. It's uncertain if Toyo Ito will remain architect for Berkeley project. http://bit.ly/90dKwd
  3. Did Chicago have to destroy a Mies, even a minor one, for a train station? It's happening this week. http://bit.ly/pjQ9s
  4. I got to know the wit and wisdom of the late Jeanne-Claude during a joint phone interview with her and Christo in 2005. http://bit.ly/sho27
  5. Met's red-ink annual report for fiscal 2009 now online. Total endowment funds down 26%. Museum's deficit: $8.4 million. http://bit.ly/vqpP5
  6. Knox Martin's Nouvel-obscured mural seen in the New Yorker. Goldberger defends the MoMA Monster against Amanda Burden. http://bit.ly/33g2rf
  7. A CultureGrrl Video First: I narrate. In St. Louis, we encounter mummies and the planned expansion that ate the museum. http://bit.ly/4ujJPY
  8. New round of CPAC testimony on MOU with Italy. NY Times' Tierney buys entire Cuno argument. Hawass' New Yorker profile. http://bit.ly/24XYsr
  9. CultureGrrl Donors come through & I fritter away some of my earnings on Terry Teachout's bio of Satchmo. A juicy read! http://bit.ly/1clyi6
  10. I want to take Max's three-masted yacht tour instead of his golf-cart tour. Still, Indianapolis' planned park impresses.http://bit.ly/1jgnQZ
  11. Last-ditch pitch for donors before weeklong shut-down of the blog. Time for some "real" work...and some Birthday cheer! http://bit.ly/1whDFs
  12. You can hear me online now (or whenever you want), talking on WQXR about 3 modernist abstraction shows at NYC museums. http://bit.ly/wFKgj
  13. WQXR's glitch is fixed. They'll be airing my commentary in a moment. Three minutes is too short for all I want to say!
  14. Maybe I won't be on WQXR after all. Why do the tech gremlins always bedevil me? They're still working on it. We'll see. http://bit.ly/3bB5Bq
  15. Coming tomorrow: I get to talk about NYC museum shows on the NYC classical music station I always listen to, WQXR. http://bit.ly/1JFzrV
  16. My take on the firestorm over the New Museum's Dakis Jouannou show. Is this pay-to-play? Complete transparency, please. http://bit.ly/2pzjpa
  17. Peoria loves Rocco. Congress lands on Landesman, instructs NEA to keep The Big Read. It's meddlesome micromanaging. http://bit.ly/3wazWB
  18. Did you miss Tom Campbell on Colbert last night? You can see it on CultureGrrl! But please don't lick the paintings. http://bit.ly/4CujT6
  19. I'm no expert, but if "The Young Archer," at the Met, is a Michelangelo, I'm Marilyn Monroe. We're not that voluptuous! http://bit.ly/23rg2A
  20. Barnes names its new chief curator. From Eastern Parkway to the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. http://bit.ly/JqNYa
