Before you ask... it's Greek. And, so is Johnson (via translation). It's a long story... Soterios Johnson seemed strangely drawn to the news, even as a young child.

New York, NY –
"Hell Yes!" That's the message that blazes in rainbow stripes across the front of the spanking new New Museum which opens tomorrow on the Bowery. The building looks like a stack of 6 shimmering aluminum boxes, stacked on top of each other, slightly off-kilter, this way and that. It’s the Museum’s first home built specifically for the institution in its 30 year history and the brand new building is the first art museum ever built from the ground up in downtown Manhattan. Soterios Johnson caught up with museum director Lisa Phillips to take a tour of the new building.
