Thanks to my alma mater for repping my books. I was surprised, but excited to read in the same issue that Carol Becker is leaving SAIC for Columbia, after her 20+ year reign over the school. It will be curious to watch how the school changes in its hiring practices, sensibilities, and general direction. Also of interest at the site - info on Wafaa Bilal's work - Wafaa was all over NPR a few months ago for his Domestic Tension project - he lived at the Flatfile Gallery for a month and had anonymous website visitors shoot paint balls at him, reenacting the violence of life in Iraq.
