Jason Eskenazi and Robert Frank at the Met
Dec 20, 2009 by Matt Lutton No Comments »Studio 360 interviewed Dva favorite and friend Jason Eskenazi about his life as a Metropolitan Museum of Art security guard and his relationship to the art all around him. It culminates in his experiences with the brilliant exhibition Looking In: Robert Frank’s The Americans (which is on view through January 3rd, and which I get to see in a couple days!).

You’ve got to listen, only 5 and a half minutes. Beautiful.
And he alludes to new work coming, cannot wait.
