Aneta Glinkowska. Aneta, aka perke, was born and raised in the part of Poland where bagels and bialys allegedly come from. She did not taste either until she first arrived in NYC in her late teens. She fancies herself a photographer, moving image-maker, swimmer, writer and reader. She is hoping to be immortalized as perke in a Ryu Murakami novel, and then perhaps make a movie loosely based on it. In addition to helping run NYAB, Aneta shoots video interviews for TAB and NYAB. She is also on the lookout for gigs with NYC-based filmmakers. » See other writings

I love the third shot! You come to the opening to see and be seen with the beautiful people and the artwork magnifies your calves so they look like a giant ass of cellulite! Brilliant!
As for the show, I wasn’t a big fan of the some of the red works in the 24th street gallery — the long, lumpy piece in the middle seems not to be up to Kapoor’s usual super-high standards of production finish. Perhaps that’s deliberate, but to me the work just felt ungainly and out of place. The mirror works in the 21st street space are a lot more captivating, although it does feel a little like “more of the same” from him. Is Kapoor running out of ideas?
