More lively and entertaining than a John Green novel!By ETsaysIts chapters are short but intensely engaging,not just about teenage angst or high fashion, there are amusing anecdotal side stories (shopping tactics, glimpses of the lifestyles of the decadent and indulgent in Manhattan and the Hamptons) for a wider audience. The content is well researched, substantive without being overly obsessive. Movie buffs will enjoy the rare nuggets of Audrey Hepburn history; mothers can relate to "Argumageddon" conflicts and ignored texts with daughters; romance readers will get brief, titillating doses of relationship trysts and of course, fashionistas get their fittings of designer names.Writing language is contemporary, sometimes salty but necessary to keep to its storyline. I don't agree with the earlier review of suspension of disbelief; the plots and subplots are credible; precedents are mentioned. I had trouble with the names of the characters - "Tabitha" may be an upper crust English name but it conjures an image of a regal cat, not a pop princess and the last "Dahlia" I heard of was a tragic victim, not an evil supervillain.The author's work in "Clarissa" entertained and raised an entire generation of millennials.

  • Humor/Comedy
    VIDEO/TV: HUMOR/COMEDY Introduction to the Catalogue for the Exhibition By John Minkowsky, curator The touring exhibition VIDEO/TV: HUMOR/COMEDY was conceived in early 1980 as a means of exploring the recent renaissance of experimental comedy in the visual and performing arts and in the entertainment industry. It was to consider the ways in which this renewed interest in innovative approaches to humor had begun to blur traditional distinctions between the otherwise exclusive domains of Art and Entertainment; which distinctions might still be maintained as useful critical tools and which could be discarded as surplus baggage; some of the circumstances that helped to foster this new breed of crossovers afforded by the employment of comedy; and what all of this might portend for the futures of Art and Entertainment alike. The introduction in the late 1960s of portable, low-cost television equipment engendered the rise of video as a new art medium. And the birth of video art more or less coincided with that of other modes of artistic expression – such as Performance – which were themselves part of a vaster and more profound upheaval within and redefinition of contemporary art. A number of younger artists, for reasons which ranged from mere curiosity and the desire to extend their ideas into temporal forms, to strong convictions about the relationship of art to commerce and the role of the artist in society, embraced these new modes of expression and media, and the new approaches, techniques and conceptual strategies toward the act of art making they seemed both to suggest and demand.
