Here and There
The Whitney Biennial is back, this year with a more international perspective on contemporary American Art. Co-curators Chrissie Iles and Philippe Vergne talk about what “American art” means in a global age and what the common threads they see in today’s diverse forms of artistic expression. Also: an update on the Dubai Ports World deal; does New York need an independent child advocate; and a call-in on how Pakistanis view President Bush.
