On what makes paintings from the 1980s actually quite good
On what the problem is with contemporary art curators
On Rodney Graham and Erasmus
On the contemporary art bubble
On why Jeff Koons = Michael J Fox
On trying to make sense of the Venice Biennale
On Glen Beck's analysis of thirties design
On the difficulty of remembering works of art
