bjorn_skurj Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Yeah, it's kind of like apples and oranges. Both were amazingly talented in the way they chose to express themselves. In other art news, I'm going to see this at some point soon: Glitter and Doom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j4lackey Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Wow, that looks cool. I've got to find a good reason to go to New York. I'd love to see that. Spent a semester studying those guys, especially Dix and Grosz, Klee too. Love the Met! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently if you are good at massaging the travel websites, my sister tells me, you can find reasonable hotel deals in the city. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blue and Green Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I like both Jackson and Hopper. But with whom do you connect with Warhol: or Thomas Kinkade: They are both masters of mass production! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 i so much can't stand thomas kinkade. he's the michael bay of painting. Hilarious -- I think I once referred to Michael Bay as the Thomas Kinkade of movie directors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
