"I hope “Skin Fruit” is the final scene of the New Museum’s uneven first act in its new building. For two years, the institution has emphasized cheek, playing to the obsolete mind-set of “Love it. Hate it. See it!” It’s time to change the formula. Shock value, savvy, and being adversarial are fine if they are backed up by credibility and vision. Too many shows here have lacked both."

Liked the broadway show about Mark Rothko -"Red" last night. http://bit.ly/cjAypq It's got big wallops of pretentious and cerebral dialogue but through an amazing performance or Rothko by Alfred Molina, the most memorable parts are seeing him being fragile and sometimes compassionate. As a NYT critic put it, "I’ve never seen a performance that captures so fully the necessary overweening vanity (and attendant humorlessness) of a great artist. (http://nyti.ms/cFz9CX)"
Alternatively, since I'm an ad guy, here's my pop culturized review: It's good. Why? Because it's written by the screenwriter for Avatar and performed by the guy who played Doc Ock on Spider Man 2!
