I looked forward to reading the gossipy news - often what is gossipy is also the inner workings of the art-tribe. Even today on ArtNet, I immediately read his articles when they are posted. Yes he can be infuriating, sexist, and then not sexist, unpredictable, and then the opposite. But always refreshing and straightforward.grace graupe-pillardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14812555004423986154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3823368011835202227.post-31841319508875533102008-10-28T20:25:00.000-04:002008-10-28T20:25:00.000-04:00Charlie Finch is abrasive and thankfully so.

His short blurbs at art-net (can’t really call them essays or reviews) are brief enough to skim, juicy enough to savor and, if need be, abbreviated enough to forget. Seems to stir up more controversy with fewer words than anybody writing in New York these days.

He connects the dots in a very personal and opinionated way, never implying a fact outside his own truth. I always read what he writes - doesn't matter whether I agree or not.
