"The Guggenheim Museum has announced its shortlist for the prestigious Hugo Boss Prize for 2006, which provides one winner $50,000 and an exhibition at the museum. The list includes Puerto Rico-based conceptual art duo Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla, and absurdist installation artist John Bock, also shortlisted for this year's Nationalgalerie Prize in Germany. Other nominees are Tacita Dean and Aïda Ruilova, both of whom work with moving imagery; Damián Ortega, who creates sculptures and photographs; and Tino Sehgal, who composes ephemeral interventions. " (ARTINFO, December 2)

My best wishes go to the team of Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla, who had the pleasure of studying with in Boston.
