This is the most personal, intense, and intensely personal thing I've ever written. It's also a book review. Thanks @TheWhiteReview for letting me write something that feels so wild and raw and @Ro_Mclaughlin for the edits thewhitereview.org/reviews/i…
Signing off for the year from my temporary job @ArtReview_
Text from newsletter @alexleissle and I finished today
all these gorgeous end of year essays (from @cnqmdi, @BetaRish, @HRFThorne, @jameskhansen and many others) are here artreview.com/category/the-y…
Here's to better times!
And more in football content today: you will not be surprised to hear this was commissioned during a conversation at the pub
Juliet Jacques went to Mexico City and wrote about its famous football stadium. On brutalist architecture, public art, a shared visual culture and – of course – football

The saddest news.
@TheWhiteReview is one of the reasons I moved to London. It's the best place I've ever written. It's where I met some of my best friends and been edited by the best editors and learned so much. I appreciate everyone who were ever part of it it was the best ❤️
It is with great regret that we announce that The White Review is going on a hiatus and ceasing its day-to-day publishing for an indefinite period. Full statement here: shorturl.at/gkSW6
I have this (temporary) new job at @ArtReview_. It's been interesting but I had no intention of posting about it but then comes @LaurenElkin and writes this banger about Edinburgh book festival and @JoshAppFilm's My Extinction and activism and it's amazing

Hivemind: Do I know an art critic based in Leeds? Or who would like to travel to Leeds for a review that will pay but will not cover travel costs?
If you want to listen to me talk about art AND football in the same programme, here it is!
The Culture File Weekly 220723: Shomit Dutta, Women's World Cup 23, Ruby Wallis & Lee Lozano
Absurdist cricket with Pinter and Beckett at the crease in Shomit Dutta's play, Stumped at Bewley's Café Theatre; media images of the Women's World Cup 23 dec… ift.tt/SCOnWH2
I'm back on the radio @CultureFilePod @RTElyricfm. A short piece about Lee Lozano at @PinAgnelli, Dropout Piece, not talking to women, scandalous feminism. Guest-starring lovely mates @lmcleanferris @3LVVIA who I saw the show with + my fav other work there rte.ie/radio/podcasts/222761…
Excited to be working on the next issue of VAN which will focus on art & literature! I love art and I love reading and mostly love working w/ writers this will be fun
(I don't wear glasses but use this photo for everything because I feel like it makes me look like an art critic)

Some articles take a hot five minutes, some a decade. This, the latter. But worth every second. So much more to say but for now here's my piece on an extraordinary neon designer and her incredible high-watt legacy. Thank you to @thebafflermag for being 🌟 thebaffler.com/salvos/wired-…
"Looming up from that moonscape of rattlesnakes”: @thebafflermag just published their special issue on Las Vegas, which includes this astonishingly joyful and fascinating essay by my friend @isobelharbison about the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign

BTW I also talked about this work on my favourite radio station @CultureFilePod for @RTElyricfm (and it earned me the best title, Senior Artball Correspondent)

In case you didn't know, @juanmata8 is really into art.
Here is my dream piece to write: a collaboration between Tino Sehgal and Juan Mata for @mifestival @FootballMuseum and some more thoughts on art, football, liveness, and empathy (and Roland Barthes!)

Read this beautifully enquiring and deeply felt essay by @oritgat about and around Devorah Baum's On Marriage.
It captures in language the undecidedness and undecidability of our relationships.

This, for @PaperVisualArt, was published just before the last men's World Cup with thoughts on Qatar,
@NUFC, money, and why football can be hard to love. The opener was once the first paragraph of my book (qualifier: "it's funny because it isn't true")

"Thank you for your comments. I read every single one of them."
I live for any description of these moments of spontaneous connection 💔
I randomly wanted to listen to Debussy's Clair de Lune so I searched it on YouTube and found a recording under which, in the comments, someone called mrtortilla3895 has posted 1000 journal entries, gained an avid following & found new purpose in life.

My review of Devorah Baum’s On Marriage for @TheWhiteReview is featured on today’s @aldaily newsletter 💫 thewhitereview.org/reviews/o…
