I was once described as “Jerry Saltz but more attractive.” While the truthfulness of that might be debatable, I have spent quite a bit of time writing about art. I’ve completed regional series about the art scenes of Denver, CO and Glasgow, UK and written extensively about a wide spectrum of visual art from fine arts in museums like the Mattress Factory and the Carnegie Museum of Art to graffiti in abandoned churches.
