Lots of news from Twitter today:

Deborah Soloman is tweeting that Larry Gagosian has bought the former Harkness House for Ballet Arts on 5th Avenue. No further details yet. [Deborah Solomon]
Magda Sawon of Postmasters is warning art folk over twitter about an email scam. Beware of Helen Harkins, who is asking people to buy art she saw on website. Emails involve fedexing checks and arranging shipments. Do not fall for this. [Magda Sawon]
Yoko Ono weighs in over twitter on the gun debate by tweeting John Lennon’s bloody glasses. [Yoko Ono]

In the papers:

Time Out NY has the city’s best art critic, Howard Halle, making listicles. That makes me a little sad about the state publishing, but on the upside, they’re pretty good listicles. This curated guide to art celebrities should provide enough context to put an end to the misguided idea that George W. Bush is a good painter. [Time Out NY]
Artist Asher Penn interviews artist Spencer Sweeney. [Sex]
Randy Kennedy on social practice projects by Creative Time, The Queens Museum and more. [NYTimes. Paywall]
