It’s not too hard to find the most egregiously overpriced tee shirt for women.  A quick browse and up pops Balmain’s artfully ripped army green tee shirt, priced at a tidy $1625.  This easily eclipses another Balmain contender, the black, ripped-but-held-together-with-safety-pins tee shirt, which looks like a relative bargain at $1545.  If one buys the premise that some women, especially some well-to-do, fashion-hungry women, shop like lemmings, this otherwise staggering price point does not surprise.

If you missed seeing Christian Marclay’s The Clock at the Paula Cooper gallery in New York this winter, there’s still hope.  The twenty-four hour long film, spliced from innumerable film clips, is described on the gallery’s website: “The Clock uncannily proceeds at a unified pace as if re-ordered by the latent narrative of time itself. Because it is synchronized with the local time of the exhibition space, the work conflates cinematic and actual time, revealing each passing minute as a repository of alternately suspenseful, tragic or romantic narrative possibilities.”
