Jerry Saltz visits the Whitney Biennial and comes away whistling ho-hum. “The art world is dying to like the 2004 Whitney Biennial. The opening was a lovefest. Previews in magazines and newspapers essentially implored, ‘Can’t we all just get along and love the biennial?’ Nearly all trotted out the cliché ‘the show everyone loves to hate.’ Disliking exhibitions is seen by some to be disloyal or obstructionist. This is traceable to the fact that in America today criticism and even civil disagreement are implicitly discouraged.”
