Art predictions ‘06

By Paul Schmelzer

Artnet invited curators and artists to list their predictions for the new year. The list runs from the cryptically grim (Maurizio Cattelan: “Things can only get better.”) to the absurd (Aura Rosenberg, who references the recent Walker gig Don’t Trust Anyone Over 30: “The producers of Sesame Street will approach Dan Graham about directing a new puppet segment called “Wild on Sesame Street.”). But one item, from frequent Artnet contributor Charlie Finch, stands out.

Glenn Lowry will head the Metropolitan Museum, Kathy Halbreich will head MoMA, and Gary Garrels will head the Walker Art Center.

Does he know something we don’t?
