  1. Reg Johanson's escratches - nice call! all beautiful titles, i feel like raiding yr shelves. and so i shall... give me a couple months. also, if there is one observation you--or anyone else--can make about the abramovic show, i'd love to hear it. (danto, whose criticism is often far too... well, anyway, his writeup about it i felt quite good, brooklyn rail i believe? if not the nation as one would guess..). hello michael from detroit, solidaridad, dw
