In 1996, Robert Adams sends a letter to the New York Times Magazine. “I have simpler advice than that offered by the decorators who were asked (in “Style,” June 16) how to use Damien Hirst’s ‘sculpture’ consisting of a real pig sliced in half: don’t buy it, don’t go to see it, and don’t write about it.” The letter is not published.
