Editing the Subtitles

Museum exhibitions often get their subtitles when someone in the marketing department realizes she has to sell the show. Don't you think critics ought to give the subtitles instead? That way the public would have a better idea of what they'll really get for a $20 admission.

In that spirit, here are more appropriate subtitles for two stinkers that I saw today.

At the Whitney, "Oscar Bluemner: A Passion for Red Buildings"
At MoMA, "Elizabeth Murray: Prelude to Pixar"
