The life-sized MTA bus installation by Red Grooms on view at Marlborough Gallery’s booth in the Spotlight section of the fair garnered a lot of attention at the VIP day (it was last displayed at the gallery in 1995). You can board this immersive 22-foot installation (fabricated from leather, foam, wood and textiles) and sit with straphangers (seen here). It’s Instagram bait, but a good one. The Spotlight section of the fair, overseen by Laura Hoptman (The Drawing Center’s executive director), highlights solo presentations of 20th century artists who haven’t gotten the credit they might deserve.

What I am fascinated about in this respirator is that it possesses most of the things needed to start using it right away, including the face piece, cartridges, filters, and retainers. I am pleased that the 3M brand did not forget to make this respirator highly durable and comfortable by using the advanced silicone material for its construction.

ProPublica: The Birth-Tissue Profiteers Their shoulders and backs and knees were giving out. Pills and steroid injections hadn’t eased their pain. They were scared of surgery. So, one afternoon last October, two dozen men and women, many of them white-haired, some leaning on canes, shuffled into a meeting room at Robson Ranch, a luxury retirement community in Denton, Texas. Sipping iced tea and clutching brochures that promised a pain-free tomorrow, they checked off their ailments on a questionnaire. They were there to see a presentation by Dr. David Greene, who was introduced as a “retired orthopedic surgeon.” Atlas Medical Center, a local clinic that specializes in pain treatment, hosted the event. Greene, a short, trim man with his hair slicked up, ignored the stage and microphone and stood close to his audience. After warming up the crowd with a joke about his inept golf skills, Greene launched into his sales pitch. A tiny vial no larger than the palm of his hand, he told the group, contains roughly 10 million live stem cells, harvested from the placenta, amniotic fluid, umbilical cord or amnion, the membrane that surrounds the fetus in the womb. Injected into a joint or spine, or delivered intravenously into the bloodstream, Greene told his listeners, those cells could ease whatever ailed them. (Chen, 5/7)
