Detective-Nathan-Adler

My name is Nathan Adler, or Detective Professor Adler in my circuit. I'm attatched to the division of Art-Crime Inc., the recently instigated corporation funded by an endowment from the Arts Protectorate of London, it being felt that the investigation of art-crimes was in itself inseparable from the other forms of expression and therefore worthy of support from this significant body. Nicolas Serota himself had deemed us, the small-fry of the division, worthy of an exhibit at last year's Biennale in Venice, three rooms of evidence and comparative study work which conclusively proved that the cow in Mark Tansey's "The Innocent Eye Test" could not differentiate between Paulus Potter's "The Young Bull" of 1647 and one of Monet's grain stack paintings of the 1890's. The trad-itional art press deemed this extrapolation "bullshit" and removed itself to study te more formal ideas contained in the Damien Hirst's "Sheep In A Box". Art's a farmyard. It's my job to pick thru the manure heap looking for peppercorns.

Go ahead, ask me something.
