Art for Yards sake? Man sleeps in window and makes a larger point

The Brooklyn Paper

TravisClarke-BP.jpgReporter Ariella Cohen picked up on our commentary about Travis Clarke's "Sleeping Man":

Little did Clarke know just how the statement, the dead tree limb in the window and his somnolent, halogen-lit body next to it would resonate with neighborhood residents, many of whom have learned a whole lot about trying do something that indeed has proven to be (so far) impossible.

“Could the tree also be representing the possibility of a future dead neighborhood?” asked one area resident, Lumi Rolley, on her anti–Atlantic Yards blog, No Land Grab.

NoLandGrab: Only "Lumi" didn't say it. The rhetorical question was posed by "Amy," who is commonly known as the "funny one," and, behind the scenes, as the one who can speel (sic!).

Incidentally, NLG isn't Lumi's blog either; she's just allowed to work here for free.

As for The Brooklyn Paper, if you're gonna act like amateurs, can you at least get a blog?
