Since arriving at fair Harvard from Brooklyn, I've grown to love Boston sports radio. I find myself genuinely impressed by what WEEI pumps out on a regular basis.

...opening of the Biennial was not about Aitken or other noteworthy Biennial participants, but about "Sanitation." Haacke's piece has caused a virtual spectacle that has grown to involve New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, the Whitney Museum and the artist himself. Late last year, Giuliani cut the Brooklyn Museum's funding because it decided to show, as part of an exhibit called Sensation, Chris Ofili's controversial painting of the Virgin Mary smeared with elephant dung and speckled with pornography.
