Default CityArts - New York's Review of Culture

The first issue of CityArts under the editorship of Armond White is now available at newsstands and online.

I am honored to be included in its pages, which features contributions by the three best culture writers in the world today.

Please find below the article I submitted, along with other pieces by the three writers who have most inspired me:


ARMOND WHITE
No-Fun Gus and the Opposite of a Life Force
Gus Van Sant’s latest takes seriousness deadly serious; Ryan Gosling delivers a dull Steve McQueen impersonation in the obvious Drive.

GREGORY SOLMAN
David V. David
Mamet and Letterman Wage TV War at the Crossroads of 9/11

BEN KESSLER
Nevermind Kurt Cobain, Here’s Jon Stewart
Political hipster turns grunge classic into bumper shtick

JOHN DEMETRY
Liberating Liz
Andy Warhol’s Gagosian print show puts humanity back in celebrity


Spread the good word!

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.

Default On-Line Exclusive #1

An honor to be included in the company of the two greatest film critics in the world today. We join forces to defend Sam Peckinpah's masterpiece!

Straw Dogs Puts Peckinpah’s Masterpiece at Center of the Fall Season

In an online exclusive feature, CityArts critics examine Hollywood’s remake obsession and its negative effects on film culture. Armond White reviews Straw Dogs’ art legacy and takes on the review of record. Gregory Solman recalls what makes Peckinpah great that Rod Lurie just doesn’t understand. And John Demetry analyzes the treacheries of Hollywood hackwork.


ARMOND WHITE
Straw Dogs’ Art Legacy
Pekinpah As Pop, Peckinpah As Classic

GREGORY SOLMAN
Straw Dogs - Stix Nix Prix Flick
Art into Bad Agit-Prop Fools Nobody

JOHN DEMETRY
Straw Dogs, Straw Arguments
Exposing Lurie’s Lurid Fallacies
