Cotner and Hamilton Raid the Armory
by John Dermot Woods on Mar.23, 2011, under Uncategorized
Artworld insiders and power couple, Jon Cotner and Claire Hamilton, spent four hours roaming New York’s Armory Show and they documented their afternoon at Paper Monument. Basically, Cotner and Hamilton offer us, the poor, a glimpse into the lives and charisma of their rarefied and beautifully bespectacled friendset. Go see Jon and Claire hash out with their pals how they might blow the wads burning holes in their silk-lined pockets.

Billionaire Mayor Jon Cotner could buy and sell you eight times over.

This slideshow is so funny; beautiful photos too. The post is a strange coincidence because I’ve just finished Cotner and Fitch’s wonderful Ten Walks/Two Talks, which Ugly Duckling Presse published in 2010. The Armory slideshow – or is it a photo essay? – has similar perceptiveness. Nice work.

This is a nice intervention into the normally inaccessible language/methodology of art journalism. Actually, all Cotner pieces are fresh interventions. It’s nice that he has a beautiful co-conspirator now!
