Find me a bull-free blog to read

April 28, 2006 2:54 AM

Do you know of any blogs which keep track of art and culture with a no-B.S. approach? Basically, something which takes pokes at pseudointellectual stuff and the manhandling of language by people who should be intelligent enough to know better (kind of like Private Eye's "Psueds Corner" in blog form).

We Make Money Not Art is a fantastic blog, and probably exactly what you're looking for, in some regards.
MoCo Loco is similarly awesome, but a completely different approach—more architecture, installations, housewares and other amazing things.

I feel like I'm out of my element in answering this question, and I may have completely missed the point, but the first thing that occurred to me was 2blowhards, which covers a wide range of topics, including artchitecture, art, literature, film, and more. Check it out for a week or so; it may be what you're after. (Then again, it may not.)

Design Observer, for the most part, avoids geewhiz-ebullient-consumer-connoisseurshipmanship.
