Tuesday was an important newspaper day in Boston. Gracing the front page of the Boston Globe was the Red Sox’s opening day at Fenway and the announcement that their own Mark Feeney won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Criticism, as noted in the last post.

Humbly for us, Mark Feeney’s review of the current PRC landscape exhibition, New England Survey, also ran in the very same Globe.  (And luckily for us, he liked it!)   I am thrilled at the confluence of events.  I wrote to congratulate Mark, and he modestly replied that it’s a win for the paper and different than organizing an exhibition.  To his and their credit, we had several people visit today because of his review and lots of calls.  Here’s to the power of well-crafted words and the media!
