Roll Call: Favorites of the Decade

Untitled (Mylar), Tara Donovan, Installation Shot at Met

 So I was asked the big question: Who are my favorite 3 artists/artworks of past 10 years?

Clearly this is an impossible question, and perhaps for that reason my mind went utterly blank...especially as I mentally had to reject so many things made prior to 10 years ago. But it bothered me I couldn't answer.

The next day, because I think better on paper, I made a list:

• William Kentridge (and, by the way, check out the PBS documentary that just came out)
• Tara Donovan
• Doug Aitken
• Julie Heffernan
• Mark Bradford
• Michelangelo Pistoletti

Not sure but strong maybes:

• Murakami
• Hernan Bas
• Claire Twomey

Not sure due to 10-year time restriction:

• Jeff Wall
• Cy Twombley

 So let's get quite contemporary, and you tell me, what would you pick? Can you pick? I can't even choose a favorite color, so I understand not being able to. But a fun game if you want to drive yourself bonkers.
