Editorial Review  Mark Lombardi By Reyhan Harmanci (04/02/2004)" It's easy to mythologize artists who die before their work reaches the widest audience; it's easier still when they, tragically misunderstood, kill themselves. In Mark Lombardi's case, though, one feels that his work is so timely, it is a cosmic conspiracy that he is not around to comment on events since the second George Bush took office. In a traveling exhibition entitled "Global Networks," five pieces of from larger collection of drawings shown in New York have arrived at Yerba Buena. " |
Editorial Review  Tom Marioni's Golden Rectangle By Nirmala Nataraj (02/27/2004)" The increasingly palpable link between the Buddhist principle of wakefulness and site-specific conceptual art is practically a moot point. After all, it's inarguable that the primary function of the latter is to educate both sentient and oblivious beings in the subtle art of perception -- but this alone does not a work of "Buddhist" art make. Thankfully, artist Tom Marioni's Golden Rectangle exhibit doesn't rehash the same truisms of the Zen experience, but instead enchants viewers with a complex, elegant interplay between the sacred and colloquial, the contemplative and the social.

Editorial Review  Youth Speaks' 7th Annual Bringing the Noise By Nirmala Nataraj (01/15/2004)" Poetry, especially in the slam and spoken word arenas, is changing the way we think about youth and, more importantly, the way youth think about life. The growing popularity of shows like HBO's Def Poetry and the emergence of a hip new faction of performers in the circuit have transformed the scene from an insular cache of one-note artists to a veritable hotbed of creative activity. Aside from a vital connection to hip-hop, urban art and political activism, performance poetry is amplified by the way it enables personal exploration and self-definition among young poets. " |
