Lately, my lunch card has been full, with invitations to press briefings at some of the New York’s ritziest restaurants. These invitations come mostly from two New York-based, arts-PR firms, on behalf of a growing number of out-of-town museums. You might say that these institutions have better use for their money than the lavish nourishment of hoards of poorly remunerated art scribes, more frequently spotted at Dunkin’ Donuts than Daniel.
I would say it’s our just desserts.
You would be right.
(Now I won’t be invited. Quick, where’s the delete button???)
