TRTR by indirection. More Serendipty

[Mark Kohut]

Stumbled upon another TR-thematic fascinating piece, imho, while hardly looking. (It's good
to get away, visit other people and read some of their magazines)
 
May-June 2011 Antiques Magazine, p.106 an article by a long-time art critic, james Gardner, called 
BETTER THAN THE REAL THING? A critic appraises the Google Art Project experience.
 
In which this line appears unironically: "one of the inadvertent revelations of Google reproductions----
is that reality itself, the real thing, may just be an imperfect medium for looking at art.    (!!!)
 
He goes on to make the case involving hung on a=museume walls so we can't look at them 
fully eye-to-eye, every way then distorts; can't get close enough to many sections.....and glass
keeps them, well, under glass............................................................
 
TR theme?..Is he just a contemp version of one of the satirized crew in TR?...an art critic, who
would bloviate at a party about Google Art Repros being more real?...Google sponsor this??
