Team Macho to take up residence at AGO?

Team-Macho-594
Here's a charming little image to leave you with for the weekend:The four-chinned beast that is Team Macho, Toronto's own little tough-guy art collective (and authors of my nifty Facebook avatar, whether they like it or not) who, bizarrely, appear to be the AGO's next artists in residence. I told you about Paul Butler back in the fall, who inauguarated the office in September with his Toronto Now show and a bunch of different projects while in residence; at the time, I was told he'd be followed by Margaux Williamson and Heather Goodchild (two favourites), but that appears, at the very least, to be on hold.

In any case, I have no idea what the lads will be doing whilst in residence (the AGO site namechecks Northrop Frye, General Idea, and the Group of Seven, for heaven's sake, but why do pillowfights come to mind?), but I aim to find out. Happy weekend.
