Ward as art writer, making note to self: "everyone is going to write about the Mao photo and its many derivative portraits, so find something else to write about."*

"Artist Terry Ward saving Gavin Brown's parking space" in the Rirkrit Tiravanija no-front-wall exhibit shortly after fellow artists Eric Clinton Anderson and Patricia Silva stole Gavin's car [ article ] --or rather shifted conventional viewer/artwork paradigms in a relational aesthetics interpretive experience. The show and the joyride both appear in Ward's best-of-the-year cover story.
With MARVIN mogul and art-preservation hero Sheldon Scott ---so committed to saving a threatened historic Obama mural by Shepard Fairey that he bought/rebuilt the building.*

Ward seeing gallery visitors' reflections in the glossy blood-in-resin art of Jordan Eagles [ web ] at Krause Gallery [ web ] in LES ---entered cynically filled with "oh no, will this art fad ever end?" preconceptions about not-wanting to see yet another body fluids show, left struck with thoughts of life's fleeting brevity inspired by the art. Fully won-over. Well executed pictures. This had to go into a magazine article.*

Posing outside the magazine office (outside= on the 30-inch building-ledge many stories above Times Square). Why? Photographer said it would be a cool image. Okay, it is. Don't fall? Get cool photo. Building in the background is the Westin tower. Image: 2011 —before "In The Art World" HQ moved out of Times Square to the bigger space in Long Island City. The NYPD is ever-alert for suspicious activity on the ground at Times Square, but they almost never look up.*

After being appointed to edit the Jerry Saltz More from Jerry Saltz:
1. Now official: Ward is wise.
2. Together, let's hide from art fairs.
3. Ward= formidable writer and model of how to argue online.
4. The Sphinx beckons (an inside-reference of honor).

2012. Looking over the offerings in the basement-space of a new LES gallery. The occasionally-used gallery-hopping irony-bling is: a picture-hanging hook as a pendant (suspended from a triple bead-chain).

Ward's "famously" paint-spattered artist shoes caught at an opening. 2010.* (Note: this is not the pair included in the Summer 2012 New York show.)
When art opening bottle-opener-staff put out a TIPS jar: must leave origami elephants. (Origami usually uses square paper; the elephant is one of the few forms which works with cash's rectangles.)
Extreme art-packing: nearly 50 Ward art panels stuffed into a Subaru wagon —in the building loading dock for set-up of the Summer 2012 solo.
3am. Rest stop. Somewhere in Jersey. Or Penna. The "dark" side of exhibiting in one state while storing most of the art in another (MUCH more affordable) state: occasional marathons of highway driving at all hours.- - -
