"To mark its 200th anniversary, the museum is hosting 'The Brooklyn Artists Exhibition,' a baggy, uneven show that features both the institution's strengths and weaknesses."
"It's unclear who or what, exactly, a Brooklyn artist is, highlighting the borough's eternal secondary status in the art world compared to Manhattan."
"Everything at the Brooklyn Museum is done on a shoestring, but there’s a yearning for it to capture the artistic energy bubbling up across the borough."
"The artists may technically live in Brooklyn, but the art itself doesn’t amount to a distinct ethos or spirit that animates each of the great museums in Manhattan."
