M,
If you haven’t read it and have 20 minutes and care to read an insightful analysis of the reactions British newspaper critics had to the Altermodern show, here’s an entry from the Frieze ‘Editors’ Blog’ (distinct from the Magazine’s content in ways that have been argued, without much substance in my opinion, in an article in the actual Magazine — which I of course read online, not in print).

By the way, I went to see Hal Foster and David Joseilt talk about “recessional aesthetics” last night at X. Not to be (too) snarky, but the most exciting part was when a man in the audience lost consciousness (too drunk) halfway through, during the very segment they were discussing the figurative ‘death’ of the critic. The talk was adjourned there.
