It's hard to understand how hilarious and brilliant it is without just seeing it. Anyway, I liked that too. Otherwise my synopsis of "Day for Night" (the 06 biennial) was "Oh look, more work by Robert Gober..." (I like Gober, but geez, he had a show at Matthew Marks last year that was up for months....
