I was in the 1993 Whitney Biennial and the 1994 'Black Male' show at the Whitney, and I've never seen such vicious press. Twenty plus years later, critics who hated that Biennial have come to Jesus and decided it was a really important, seminal show that they misunderstood.

The Carrie Mae Weems photograph 'Blue Black Boy,' I thought, was fantastic.

An artwork is an arrangement of things. The ideal show for me would be if everything touched, literally touched, so that everything would blur together.
