...that he can take it over as his own museum. Koshalek flatly denies that this is in the cards. "The leadership of this board, let alone the city, will never let the Temporary Contemporary go," he says. Nor should they: the discourse between MOCA's two buildings, the spare, rather grand abruptness of Gehry's renovated warehouse contrasted with the hyperrefinement of Isozaki's sunken museum, gives the museum a special flexibility of response to the display needs of today's art.

It also takes a peasant's pleasure in the texture and even the temperature of every icon, from...
...York City. Cory's four college years passed with scarcely a trace at the College of Mount St. Vincent, a small Catholic women's college in the Riverdale section of the Bronx. The self-contained student occasionally entertained her classmates with Filipino dances but otherwise kept to herself, spending spare hours with an elder sister and returning home to the Philippines in the summers. Her classmates recall her only as a "shy little violet" who once played an angel in a college production of Green Pastures...
