With 27 days remaining in 2006, the year-end lists are starting to come out. Artforum‘s just-published December issue includes kudos for the Walker in its top-ten lists: Mike Kelley put the Philippe Vergne-curated exhibition Cameron Jamie at number 7, and artist Thomas Lawson, focusing on the work of Rodney McMillian, included the show Ordinary Culture: Heikes/Helms/McMillian, curated by Doryun Chong, as his eighth pick. Curator Francesco Bonami included Thomas Hirschhorn’s Gladstone Gallery showing of Superficial Engagement, which included the installation Abstract Resistance, a Walker new acquisition. “The best CliffsNotes to America’s macabre folly in Iraq,” he writes, the show might not change the world, but proves that “the world can change art.”
In online accolades, Off Center earned a mention at #24 on Fimoculous’ list of 30 “Best Blogs of 2006 You (Maybe) Aren’t Reading.”
I agree with Rex. Off Center is consisting on point, and I look forward to more great work in 2007.
