IT WENT VIRAL! Due to popular demand, James Kalm is releasing Was the New Museum Punked into general circulation. After it appearance on facebook (site of its exclusive debut) Hrag Vartanian, scooped a flurry of local bloggers who ran the story, many of whom, without properly crediting their source.
Its description at facebook is: A banner stating "Please New Museum Show My Work" was hanging from the buildings facade at the press preview for Younger than Jesus. It was soon removed, but across the street a painting with the same plea was seen on the ground. Was this a successful scam?

  • what is the song used in this video?

  • "The Horror" by RJD2 from the album Deadringer.

  • I have been contacted vie e-mail by someone calling them self "The immaterial art emperor

    Marc-Antoine Léval" claiming responsibility for the banner intervention, but not the painting. He says he's producing a video and will let us know when it's posted.

  • I'm hoping it works. I liked the painting.

  • haha!

  • i dunno... the painting was decent. and better than some of the shit salad that made the show. if it was on the inside... me thinks everyone magically feel differently about it.
