tabloid- Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 pics i took from when i went to the moma 2 weeks ago ] It's funny that 2 of the most influential paintings of the past 100 years turned up so ... 'whatever'..... in your MOMA trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watson Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 i know the stories behind them so it's not like i put them in there because of that i just pictures of a mixed variety of stuff.. some are more important then the others but i look at it as a whole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viperface Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Have you been there? Because they really do turn up like that. i mean when I was there I experienced it like you said. There was a strong "whatever" factor. I could've stared intensely at Picasso's Avignon like all the people in jean overalls did, but that would've been ignoring the huge Miro piece right next to it. If there was a balloon ocean around the corner with a clown handing cotton candy to everyone, it wouldn't have surprized me. It was just absurd.

tabloid- Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Not implying anything. Just thought it was funny. Yes. I have been to MOMA. Many, Many times. I'm probably a blur in several Eastern European tourist photos from Pollock's #31 to Braque and Picaso's cubist works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BELTOLEUM Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 When I was younger i always thought my grandmother painted this because she told me so, but she just replicated it and it actually looks really good...I need to get it from her house so i can hang it up somewhere here.

YearzOne Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Came across this a couple days ago, An artist from Pittsburgh named Cliff Maynard, that’s also a tattoo artist, is making portraits by using marijuana joint ends. The portraits are of famous people like Bob Marley, Snoop Dog and John Lennon, to mention a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somethinglikethat Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I'm sorry, but at the risk of sounding elitist... making artwork with roaches is kitsch enough to start with. Copying pictures of Bob Marley and Snoop dog is as well. But making pictures of snoop dog and bob marley out of roaches... reaches the level of embarrassing self-parody. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
