My friend Eliot Markell (photo) writes a blog about artists, exhibits, and other matters that matter to the art world. Markell brings a practicing artist's eye to his subjects, while avoiding the specialist's proclivity toward dense prose and recondite subjects. As a fine art layperson, I find Eliot's perspective a refreshing one. Additionally, he's been around the New York art world and understands its currents and eddies. That gives his viewpoint a useful edge that eschews groupthink.I do not always agree with Markell's opinions, but his point of view is generally the result of reasoned argument and genuine sentiment. Here's the link to his blog, called "White Elephant On Wheels."
