The New Yorker Manager

"9/2/2013: On "Fame" exhibit: "Only occasionally does fame overlap with greatness, much less importance, so movie and pop stars get far more attention than politicians and painters." (Through Sept 14)"

"9/2/2013: Ellen Gallagher's "Don't Axe Me": "A 2010 video and slide installation about a shipwreck, housed in a fussily designed black box, is little more than atmospheric." (Through Sept. 15)"

"9/2/13: Hilton Als on Lois Smith, now starring in the late Horton Foote's "The Old Friends": "Smith changes the atmosphere of whatever production we're lucky enough to have her in.""

"9/2/2013: "ProBio," now in its final week at MOMA PS1, "isn’t the best show of the summer, but I can’t get it out of my head.""

"Imagine this summer’s James Turrell show "as air-conditioning for the eye and, if you’re gamely susceptible, the soul.""

"The cronut “reminded me of the inside of an average fried rice noodle roll.”"
