    How nice for her.

    I find it interesting that every article on Jeremijenko focuses on two things:

    1) Her accent.

    2) Her looks.

    After noting that her CV reads like a cubist interpretation of a scientific education (a "post-doc" at NYU before finishing her PhD?), I'll be brave enough to make a controversial observation: it must be awfully nice to be an attractive, "scientifically literate" woman in the world of modern art.
