Urs Fischer specializes in making jaws drop. Cutting giant holes in gallery walls, digging a crater in Gavin Brown’s gallery floor in 2007, creating amazing hyperrealist wallpaper for a group show at Tony Shafrazi: It all percolates with uncanny destructiveness, operatic uncontrollability, and barbaric sculptural power.
My heroes, growing up, were people like Andy Kaufman and Groucho Marx and people that very rarely drop the persona.

The idea that women are actually getting some jobs – whoopee.

But I think it’s a wonderful thing that women are getting to direct more.
People need to trust you: that you’re going to pull them out and that they will follow you when you pull them out. If they don’t get that comfort, they’re going to drop you. This is true of organizations. It’s true of countries.
