One of our favorite Portlanders,
Matt
McCormick got a
nice
writeup in The New York Times Friday for his piece in the Uncertain States
of America Show (Portlanders have been getting a lot of coverage there lately
and we also know Roberta really likes Portland's civics). Sure, Matt's "Subconscious
Art Of Grafitti" removal is really old old news here (circa 2001). I wrote about it in
Modern Painters back in early 2004 and Art Forum noted it before that, but more about
Matt's work is always better, especially from Roberta Smith. The thing is his
work holds up over time and as Matt so succinctly put it, "Go Team Portland!"
