dirac Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 An obituary for Joan Acocella by Harrison Smith in The Washington Post. Quote Ms. Acocella dissected the work of actress Frances McDormand, sculptor Louise Bourgeois and puppeteer Basil Twist, as well as authors including Agatha Christie, Primo Levi and Hilary Mantel (“She always goes for color, richness, music”). Whatever medium she was exploring, she often noted the hardships that artists faced while doing their work and studied how some artists falter while others find lasting fame. Link to comment
