Kara Walker’s getting a lot of press and, by extension, so is the Walker, around the artist’s traveling retrospective "My Complement, My Enemy, My Oppressor, My Love," which premiered at the Walker last February.
In his illuminating profile for The New Yorker (this links only to an abstract), tied to the show’s run at the ARC/Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, Hilton Als tips to Philippe Vergne, the Walker’s Deputy Director and Chief Curator, who curated the exhibition. “Endless Conundrum,” on loan from the Walker, illustrates a brief in The New York Times about the exhibition’s run at the Whitney (scroll to the bottom for the text) . Art in America Magazine gives the exhibition its October cover.
