Andres Serrano – Vandalism – Art – New York Times
New York Times – Oct 9, 2007
This was no joke or acting stunt. It was what actually happened on a quiet Friday afternoon in Lund a small university town in southern Sweden where “The History of Sex” an exhibition of photographs by the New York artist Andres Serrano had opened two weeks earlier. Around 3:30 half an hour before closing four vandals wearing black masks stormed into a space known as the Kulturen Gallery while shouting in Swedish “We don’t support this” plus an expletive. They pushed visitors aside entered a darkened room where some of the photographs were displayed and began smashing the glass protecting the photographs and then hacking away at the prints.

Since 1919 the Newman family’s paperboard has become all sorts of things: legal pad cardboard backing Monopoly game boards cereal boxes and those baby blue boxes from Tiffany’s. For David Newman a fourth-generation papermaker finding paper-only trash is challenging. And it’s getting tougher still as more municipalities change to single-stream recycling — letting homeowners mix paper glass metal and plastic. To tell his story Newman recently invited some 50 members of the Sustainable Business Network to tour his plant. As Newman sees it local companies like his and outside national corporations are engaged in mortal combat. Well maybe a battle is brewing but I’m not buying that it’s a fight to the death. Because as recycling ramps up under a new administration there’ll be so many spoils it’ll be hard to pick a victor… To tell his story Newman recently invited some 50 members of the Sustainable Business Network to tour his plant. As Newman sees it local companies like his and outside national corporations are engaged in mortal combat. Well maybe a battle is brewing but I’m not buying that it’s a fight to the death. Because as recycling ramps up under a new administration there’ll be so many spoils it’ll be hard to pick a victor. Newman’s cross-town nemesis is Blue Mountain Recycling. Located in Grays Ferry the seven-year-old recycling company was bought two years ago by FCR Recycling based in Vermont. As the city’s only local single-stream processor Blue Mountain is the heir apparent to take over all of Philadelphia’s curbside recycling as the city shifts to single-stream.
