...many ways: some blame inexperienced A.K. ministers who overplayed their hand with the U.S., while others point the finger at Wolfowitz, who, say his critics, never understood that with the election of the A.K., military and secular leaders with strong ties to the U.S. no longer monopolized power. Says Emin Sirin, an A.K. parliamentary deputy and Istanbul businessman: "The Americans thought that if you talk to two or three people, you have Turkey in your hands. The whole system has changed, and they didn't appreciate that...
...world's most notorious figures, having used his wealth to shape a generation of British art. He favors works that make big, confrontational gestures, like Damien Hirst's The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living (an entire preserved tiger shark), Tracey Emin's unkempt My Bed, and Richard Wilson's room-sized lake of sump oil, 20:50.

"It's embarrassing, because it's not what I meant and it's certainly not what I think." Let's hope he finds a better translator now that...
...painter Duncan Swann came into the art supply shop in central London where Campbell works the two found points of resemblance - Swann's night vision takes in deserted sports fields. The resulting friendship led to a joint exhibition at Leeds Metropolitan earlier this year. While conceptual artists like Tracey Emin and Damien Hirst grab the headlines, painters like Campbell and Swann are continuing a very British tradition of urban realism that stretches from Atkinson Grimshaw's 19th century nightscapes to John Piper's records of war-torn London. Duncan Swann feels part of an "urban landscape" movement that includes people...
