The Lucien Freud was chosen probably because the skin and feeling of horror that the paintings tend to provoke. Small here on a computer they seem "pretty"...but his paintings are far from pretty yes?<BR/><BR/>I think it's hilarious that Goren loves the edgy stuff in culture he is such a Sherlock Holmes.<BR/><BR/>Tweetey, I think it's great you think the landscape is lovely....funny...I picked that one because I kind of thought it was harsh and violent...like a swamp or abyss or the beginning of life chaotic. What did you think of the portrait?<BR/><BR/>4D, I think I know what you mean...and besides...Lucien Freud is a total punk rock painter! He reallys ees the human form as combative or creepy. Like...what are her legs doing? It seems an impossible position...is that left leg "correct"...it's very much like Ignes.<BR/><BR/>*, that is hilarious! And poignant seeing as I've posted them small here...and we force art into magazines and frames and canvases...and reproductions...Candy Minxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07350752657678863378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-48392805575613392822008-03-19T12:50:00.000-04:002008-03-19T12:50:00.000-04:00Actual conversation overheard by a friend of mine ...Actual conversation overheard by a friend of mine in a Paris gallery several years ago.<BR/><BR/>American woman: Honey, come and look at this Monet [pronounced "Mo Nay", of course]! <BR/><BR/>American man: Take a picture, hun, and I'll see it at home.* (asterisk)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11969314216753450118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-25812038278813519572008-03-18T18:12:00.000-04:002008-03-18T18:12:00.000-04:00Well I like the dog anyroad.I'll rephrase that.I l...Well I like the dog anyroad.<BR/><BR/>I'll rephrase that.<BR/><BR/>I like the real dog anyroad.<BR/><BR/>I'll rephrase that.<BR/><BR/>Oh sod it, you know what I mean...FOUR DINNERShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15675014976854343039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-12477877469485105002008-03-17T12:28:00.000-04:002008-03-17T12:28:00.000-04:00That first painting is beautiful.

It reminds me of a spring day and listening to the water go down the drains at the corners esp afte having as much snow as we have had.tweetey30https://www.blogger.com/profile/04780963604845788306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-9245434817075722522008-03-16T16:10:00.000-04:002008-03-16T16:10:00.000-04:00curious they chose Monet, as it seems to me, he ga...curious they chose Monet, as it seems to me, he gave us quite a bit to think about, particular in his later years....curious alternative too. There are so many ways to look at paintings, no? <BR/><BR/>I can just see those wooden actors on that show stumble through those lines. Har! Still, good to see a cop show have an art conversation.mister anchovyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14047409406840291723noreply@blogger.com
