“The hour generally is late in Nicole Eisenman’s pictorial world, the palette prevailingly fuscous. We find ourselves...in some packed 1:00 AM beer garden, amid the ripped, the randy, and the maudlin.” —Julian Bell go.nybooks.com/3U8EKJl

“The only reason we didn’t descend into violence that day was that the students remained calm. They were the only adults in the room.” —@NadiaAbuElHaj1 on the pro-Palestinian encampment at Columbia go.nybooks.com/4ddotM7
"Everyone outside the Amazon... are the locusts. Through our consumption patterns—the voracious global appetite for red meat, construction materials, new furniture, new paper created from pulped trees—most of us are preying on the Amazon." nybooks.com/articles/2024/…
"Many years later, as I faced the deadline for writing this review, I was to remember that distant afternoon when Márquez showed me the Spanish manuscript of Chronicle of a Death Foretold and then refused to let me read the novel until its publication." nybooks.com/articles/2024/…
“I had no idea what to do. I thought of myself as a photographer of people, but other than a few artists down near the water, there were very few people on the narrow streets where I now lived. I wondered what the story was…” @nybooks nybooks.com/online/2024/04…
"By then tens of thousands more people had fled the capital, taking enormous risk: gangs control most major travel routes. Western embassies have since airlifted personnel out of the country." @nybooks #Haiti nybooks.com/online/2024/04…

“The draperies in which he shrouds his men and women are so thin and sinuous that they reveal everything beneath—and then underline it all with a flourish.” —Ingrid D. Rowland on Antonio Canova’s impeccable sculptures go.nybooks.com/3Ud1OXD
“Narendra Modi ‘has thrown Netanyahu and his ministers a lifeline as they struggle within a trap of their own making: having committed to collectively punishing Palestinian workers, they know that Israel’s economy will find it hard to do without them.’” go.nybooks.com/4bbjw4K
“García Márquez once told me...about entire villages in Colombia that hauled their cemeteries with them as they migrated, trying to keep some semblance of the past alive in the midst of the multiple catastrophes that had uprooted them.” —Ariel Dorfman go.nybooks.com/3y39pQU
“Were he not so incompetent, and if he had at least an iota of integrity, Netanyahu could almost be a tragic figure—an intelligent or at least cunning man who sold his soul to the devil.” —David Shulman go.nybooks.com/3Uq5k23

Here's a 2017 written piece adapted from the essay Ware wrote for the catalog for the George Herriman Krazy Kat exhibit he mentions in the video. (You have to register for a NYR account to read it, but it's free to do so.) nybooks.com/online/2017/01…
“Populist politics exploits the doubleness of comedy—the way that ‘only a joke’ can so easily become ‘no joke’—to create a relationship of active connivance between the leader and his followers [where] everything is permissible because nothing is serious.” nybooks.com/articles/2024/…

Is it the “sleep of reason” that begets all these political monsters wreaking chaos and confusion around the world…or are we just getting crazier and crazier from the heat of a burning planet…? Maybe a little of both…? @ECOWARRIORSS nybooks.com/articles/2024/…
“There seems to be a general belief among readers that to write about ‘poetry’ is somehow not to write about ‘life.’ But ‘poetry’ is the construction by consciousness of an apprehensible world. Every person constructs such a world, and lives in it.”
Helen Vendler (from an old review in @nybooks of Ashbery's A Wave), responding to the complaint that poems that seem to be "about poetry" are not "about life." nybooks.com/articles/1984/…
Read it "Survival depends on sharing the land between these two peoples. The settlement project in the West Bank has to end. The barbarian extremists on both sides, as if colluding together, will, given half a chance, kill us all." nybooks.com/articles/2024/…
