...Julián Zugazagoitia, director of El Museo del Barrio, a Latin American art museum in New York City. Criss-crossing the world between his five homes, Botero ships all his work to Zurich to be stored until it is exhibited or sold. He has no assistant, preferring to catalog the work himself on his Palm Pilot and Apple laptop, constant items in his luggage. He has a fully equipped studio near each of his homes, including on Paris' Left Bank and New York City's Park Avenue, and in villas in Colombia and Pietrasanta, Italy. The late Prince Rainier...

Microsoft is hot on Google's heels with a version of its own free desktop search tool and a promised corporate version as well...
...devastating idea, Friedlander loves the muchness of the world. He loves the haphazard multitude of things that can pop up in every picture--street signs, sunbeams, bits of roofline, a jagged shadow--all colliding and contradicting one another. In his breezy but very acute introduction to the show's catalog, Peter Galassi, MOMA's chief curator of photography, gets it just right when he says some of Friedlander's pictures give you the impression that "the physical world had been broken into fragments and reconstituted under pressure at three times its original density...
