got any links to anymore of this guys work.. i'm strangely curious to see more. i think i've seen this painting in some porfolios put together for entrance to undergrad art programs, but they were not accepted.. you will be missed..
totally it was underwhelming!!! it looks like bad undergrad work, - sorry guess that didn't translate.
i am not familar with anyone on that site. - was just answering poppys "i'm strangely curious to see more" i just happen to enjoy doing internet research on Artists.
thanks for doing that for me.. i was curious for sure. And today i am lazy.
There once was a guy in my studio room/space and we were doing figurative work and he painted fairies and dragons and swords etc.. I was painting my friend and the head was too small and i realized this only after some time.. He told me i should just paint the figure holding a magnifying glass over his head then i wouldn't have to correct the drawing. i said it was a great idea but i did want to learn how to draw first. that whole page of artists reminded my of this incident. I relay this anecdote with the best of intentions, he was a super nice guy.
To busy and sloppy. Can't make heads or tails of it. Maybe a nice piece up close and personal. It kind of has the feel of a strange Clemente watercolor

Two women killed after inflatable artwork lifts off
Peter Richards Monday July 24, 2006 The Guardian
Two women were killed and a three-year-old girl seriously injured yesterday when wind flipped an inflatable art installation 30 feet into the air, tipping out as many as 30 visitors.
The accident at the Riverside Park, Chester-le-Street, County Durham, left another 12 people needing hospital treatment. They included an elderly man and woman who suffered heart attacks.
It's very green, it's acceptable. I like parts of it...I'm sick of it all. If it was my friends work I'd spend more time with it...if I saw more of the paintings blah, blah, blah...and hear lies the dilemma of painting...investment..time...investment, painting demands investment...so much work out there how to invest? everythings just so...well, good. Goodness is killing me.
It's always weird to me when people talk about art being unethical because it rarely kills people ( well not often). Except for Holocaust imagery which irritates the shit out of me. It's been covered so many times and so well already in art and film that it seems like the ultimate cheap career move to add content.
Turner---the lover of english weather from a painterly distance...painters distance. Death Sculpture...the longing to ride it, to get the elderly on it, is far too truly experiential, for my liking...painting sit back, go for a ride, and walk on if so needed.
Holocaust content...generally subtext searching for a text. Which inevitably I find unethical...or not conducive to the sweetest aims of painting. Sweetness, the sweet spot.
my experience...begins and ends with your telling...blog writing at that...I always feel that one needs to appreciate the polyvalent quality of stringing words along...the abstraction. I refuse to toe any line when empathy is demanded. Tell me a story. I'll play along... Sometimes I'll play along with your demands if you smile correctly.
miilerhuggins I think your being kind of a wise guy here, but I will give you the benifit of the doubt. I posted a story about a sculpture that was designed so poorly that when the wind hit it took off and people fell out of it and they died. It was a tragic accident but I have to say from reading the article it seemed it was designed poorly.
Does this story need any line toeing, do you have to be stroked and massaged to get it?

i was at the christo's studios and ALL they were talking about was the public creating the context, all wanted to do was ask them about the umbrella, i wish i did.
Painterdog...what I said was in relation to your ironic comment...I may have been a bit flip twisting that into talking about Turner, wished you stayed on longer last night.
Subtext searching for text...the real subject in these works in many cases seems to be how these things are put together how the painting actually works, is the obvious drama/interest in the work...the fact that it uses concentration camp imagery is a one liner--dare I say an automatic conversation piece for the--at one time--Uptown New York art buyer and doesn't relate directly to the quality of the work, or if it does, it's that cheap jolt...in my opinion that card's to big to be playing for arts cheap jolt or cocktail party fodder. The imagery/the subtext searching for...actually searching may be the wrong word...It takes one decision to use holocaust imagery it takes many more to actually make the painting. I don't like that descrepancy when it comes to the weight of that imagery. The real text is elsewhere in many of these works...and in many it's all there is...subtext as text in that case....in a non-literary way of talking about it... subject matter and subject.
It's difficult learning to blog instead of converse...you can't see when the other person looks puzzled, apalled, etc. and shape the next sentence accordingly. A different skill this blogging.

I am not seeing any holocaust imagery in this painting. You are taslking about Dörte Kraft?
It seemed to me you that you were being ironic about the news item on the sculpture accident. I was not being ironic at all. I was just bringing this event to the table.

very busy, bitty pictures.
What if the canvas was round... pull out the circle?
Ok ..busier and more bits... with weaving! and such nice colors!!

Painterdog, Turner would be proud.
Turner would be proud of what?

oh your being ironic.
Well its not funny as people died for no reason, as did a lot of children in Lebanon this week.
They died because the damn thing was designed badly.
Except for Holocaust imagery which irritates the shit out of me.
Please explain this statement it sounds...well strange.
sorry I got political, I was just reading the NY times.

It seemed to me you that you were being ironic about the news item on the sculpture accident. I was not being ironic at all. I was just bringing this event to the table.
Was just commenting on killer sculpture and offensive art not this painting which is totally innocuous maybe too innocuous. Like Paul Klee? But why?
I was not commenting on you Kelli in my last post.
"Except for Holocaust imagery which irritates the shit out of me."
But this statement from before is very loaded.
My Holocuast imagery comment referenced what I said regarding subtext searching for a text which related to what Kelli brought up originally.
Somethingutopian about this dealio.
