Another not-so-good LACMA theme show cobbled together from the permanent collection. The insistence on a theme narrows our art experience, rather than expanding it. Even the engaging work, like Patrick Martinez’s “Fallen Empire” (the first image), gets cramped.

Review: At LACMA, a rambling theme show of recent contemporary art acquisitions jumps the rails

POTUS is a troll, Stephen Miller is a troll, the cabinet is all trolls, the Speaker of the House is a troll, so apparently Skydance thought making a troll CBS News editor would be a good fit to cover the United Trolls of America.
