Jonah Freeman and Justin Lowe, Black Acid Coop at Deitch. (Image courtesy of the very wonderful 16 Miles.)
DEAR ARTISTS/GALLERISTS/PUBLICISTS: From here on out I would like you to know that any press releases that get sent to me exclusively as attachments will be immediately discarded. Images are always welcome (though if you’re really cool, you’d just post them on Flickr and all us blogger types could grab them from there). But don’t make me download some three-page artspeak treatise onto my overtaxed laptop just to find out what your paradigm-shifting show is about. All I need are the what-where-when, along with a web link to your show’s info online. Gracias, C.

Why is it so goddamn hard for folks to download Flickr links? I’ll send someone links to a Flickr set, or direct links to the highest quality versions, and folks will still send me an Email requesting that I sent the whole goddamn image as a giant, network crashing attachment. Grr….
- rant off.
dude… don’t even get me started… my favorite are PDF press releases… sometimes you want to cut and paste some info of some sort or another and you can’t because it’s in a bandwidth-gobbling PDF!!!!
