tru art.

I stumbled across this genius when I got a bunch of death metal CDs in the mail earlier this week. The CD in question is actually OK, but the artist is not. Here’s the masterpiece in question.

I don’t know what you guys were doing in school with your faggy degrees or whatever, but you can’t touch REAL ART. Check it.

From the Danto book I’ve been reading when I can. Facebeard, there are chapters on Giacometti, Norman Rockwell, and Barnett Newman I will scan and send to you. I’m liking Danto quite a bit (A2M) now that I’m not expecting him to answer all the big questions.

“Recall that after Schubert’s death, his brother cut some of Schubert’s scores into small pieces, and gave each piece, consisting of a few bars, to his favorite pupils. And this act, as a sign of piety, is just as understandable as the different one of keeping the scores untouched, accessible to no one. And if Schubert’s brother had burned the scores, that too would be understandable as an act of piety.” -Ludwig Wittgenstein

Dear Mr. Guston…

Just when you thought everything was cool… Everything was fine… you go to eat your favorite things, and….

Spagett!

Philip Guston

I have difficulty with Philip Guston now and again.  I think his earlier abstracts are incredible, and speak so much more poignantly than his later drawings.  I understand the whimsy, and I like a cartoon as much as the next low ear, but come on guy.  I liken him to the Rolling Stones, in that their earlier work was such a shift in idom they have license to rest on their laurels and make some shitty fluff albums.  Some would argue the Dylan is in that same boat (not me so much).  Then I found this:

TOTALLY REDEEMED!!!

Meat face

Saw this painting in a somewhat recent issue of Art in America.  It’s part of a series, of which I could only find two paintings.  The artist is Vietnamese and his name is Hyo Seok Han.  

This painting kicks my flaccid dick right off.

FUN LOLOLOL

you are all sloppy wet…

I like what you’ve done with the shading.

You have a really great style in art.
