Made by Mass MoCA (Training Ground for Confidentiality)


“This new series of works I have been doing is a kind of physical manifestation of the principle of freedom of speech and expression that the dispute is about,” Christoph Büchel (pronounced BOO-shel) said in an e-mail message to answer several questions about the work. “It says to the museum: You cannot shut me up. You tried, with your lawsuits and your fancy pro bono lawyers, but you cannot do it. You destroyed the installation ‘Training Ground for Democracy,’ but it mutated into an ongoing metaproject.”

Sandwich of the Week

Sandwich of the Week
BY RACHEL WHARTON
Cuban Hamburger
The most beloved sandwich at Amor Cubano is the Cuban, not surprisingly. But there's another on the menu worth a sample, and that's the Cuban burger or frita Cubano. Cuban is a cuisine known for its ways with peppers, onions and pork, so, of course, those make their way into these extra flavorful patties. Plus, Latin-American countries like Cuba have a penchant for serving hot dogs and burgers topped with a mountain of extra-thin crispy potato sticks, and that's exactly how Amor delivers its sliders: A simple treat of spicy burger, bun, thick dill pickle and a mountain of toothpick fries. Better still, these tiny bites leave you room for roast pork, silky black beans, addictive empanadas and everything else at Amor Cubano. And should you eat too many, no worries, you can always work up an appetite between courses with the live Latin music. There are shows nearly every night, featuring performances by your servers.
