Tie me stuffed shark down, sport...


I posted the other day about the sad fact that there's no Australian or New Zealand art luminaries included in ArtReview magazine's artworld top Power 100. However, looking back over previous years, you'll be relieved to note that I've now located the sole Australasian representative: artist and broadcaster Rolf Harris, who appears in 2002 at no. 100, just under Thomas Sokolowski, director of the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh and sometime visitor to New Zealand, who no doubt was delighted it was that way round. Not sure what this says about our collective art cultures. All together now...
