I never can quite tell whether I think he’s fabulous or shudderingly dreadful in print and on the telly - both at the same time, usually - but he’s a good appointment, thanks to his tendency to latch on to some little cultural gobbet he finds interesting, picking away at it until it’s been, well, Eshunised. Nice, too, that he’s a pretty firmly entrenched contemporaryvisualartworld type, but one who keeps fingers in plenty of other culture-pies.

Be interesting to see what impact he has on the ICA, anyway - one of a handful of places that makes me think, for the occasional split-second, that moving to London might actually be quite a good idea.
