Don’t usually blog twice in the same day, but I can’t resist this.
Is this a joke? A Dutch colleague has just told me of a new form of visitor participation. Currently there’s a Raphael exhibition at the Teylers Museum in Haarlem. Apparently the curators of the show aren’t sure wether this drawing is by Raphael or his studio, so they’re asking the public to vote on the issue. I’m told that there is a special “voting machine” (the mind boggles) set up in one of the galleries. All taking part “could win a trip for two to Raphael’s own country.” Here's the wording on the website.
In a special room, visitors can view an innovative introduction to Raphael's style and working methods. Which elements define his work? How do the experts view it, and how do you identify a real Raphael? Visitors can vote on the authenticity of a drawing: is it by Raphael or isn't it? One lucky participant will win an unforgettable art-history trip to Italy for two people.
Well, that would eliminate all the rows between the specialists- just leave Raphael connoisseurship issues to the public.
This exhibition is held in conjunction with the Albertina in Vienna. Yesterday morning I was studying Raphael drawings in that museum, so I’m pretty much in practice at the moment. I think I know a Raphael drawing when I see it- and this ain’t, not in a million years. Can you send me my tickets now? Get me on the next flight to Italy.
A dear friend of mine is a longtime editor at The New York Times. What upsets him the most is the comments section at the bottom of news stories on the paper's Web site. He says, "what was once news has now become one big pajama party."
Ditto art expertise...

That two women with one major action film between them were chosen above those with thicker resumes caused many to worry that true action-movie legends like Linda Hamilton and Sigourney Weaver would get short shrift.
Then last month, "Expendables 3" was greenlit, with cries for a stronger female character to be added to the macho mix.
