More Fischli and Weiss

The puppets are at 526 W. 22nd St. A few doors away, at 522, is Fischli and Weiss's collection of 800-plus magazine ads laid out on 38 tables. Yawn. It's almost as boring as Miami/Basle, that dreary labyrinth built of everything you already know. This work by F&W is billed as as an expose of late capitalism. If only. The Awful Truth, of course, is that this work, originally commissioned by a corporation, was designed as a site for some late capitalist to stash some cash.
