ART LINK = MISSING LINK

Claire Lawton, of the New Times, has commented on the grave state of affairs at Art Link. Entitled "Missing Link", the article comments on the sad deterioration of Art Link and the growing disgust of the downtown arts community. Despite repeated requests by the downtown arts community to reform its practices and get back to providing services in a timely manner, Art Link continues to operate in the same dysfunctional way that has lead to its growing irrelevance. There is a palpable sense of outrage in the downtown arts community directed at Art Link's (think Sloane Burwell) continued failure to listen to, let alone respect, the concerns of the gallery owners, studio operators and creative artists.

There will be more on this - this is far from over.
