This review of the exhibition "Carl Andre: Sculpture as Place, 1958- 2010" at Dia: Beacon is by Holland Cotter. It describes how "Writing poetry was Mr. Andre's initial calling...Even if he had not gone on to art, the poetry would be of interest. And in it, the sculptor-to-be is already evident. Mr. Andre has referred to his poems as 'typewriter drawings' and, in the spirit of Concrete poetry, their shape on the page is crucial to their effect." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The closing paragraph states, "An interesting side note involves the Miami contribution. Because some of this work was intentionally prefab and repetitive, there are similar models of certain pieces. So when the Getty collection refused to allow 30 donated works to travel for this show, what a surprise it was to find replacements right here: 28 came from the private collection of Ruth and Marvin Sackner, a testament to the significance of local collections." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

John Russell contends that "the same few artists dominate all the major contemporary collections...[because] we feel comfortable with what we know, and for better and for worse that sensation is available in full measure in museums of modern art...It is, in fact, the buildings, and not what we see in them, that are full of surprises." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
