So, lame as I am, I'll just ask? Was that the original Duchamp toilet? Is that a piece of Guernica or a riff from Guernica?
Talk already, amigo.
Tell us about this last piece. Reminds me a bit - only a bit - of a certain Siquieiros' piece.
Yes, thats Duchamps Foutain.
Iv'e never seen Gernica in person. I am assuming that is taken from the real thing that I got from a search
The last one is Robert Williams. He is the younger generations claim of a true master.
I've tried to search the Siquieros horse before and it is in one of my books (still packed). Interesting...
Thank you for that, makes me cry.
That painting makes you cry?
Absolutely.
It is very powerful to me.
I have tears running down my face.
That is part of a larger panel, but of course I don't have my book to talk about it or re-see it.
Now that you mention it, It is a pretty good painting.
If it makes you cry on the spot it be preety damn good.

I cried when I saw some Sienese painting the second time.
The crying is really joy.
I'm pretty glad to see that image again. I'm a fair Siquieros fan, however you spell his name.
I signed a petition for him to get out of jail once, long ago. Not that I knew anything at the time, but my then boyfriend did. Thinking, 1963. That then boyfriend was only in my life a short time, but his ideas woke me up.
I didn't then follow anybody's orchestration, but I started with all the questioning.
Siquieros's paintings were powerfull.
One can slam all that in different ways, but the guy sure painted a package.
The horse signifies him for me.
Even more than the LA crucifix.
Personally, I'm not keen on bloody Mary's. Are you saying my opinion was affected by alcohol - well, yeh, at least sometimes my talking about my opinion is...
but not in this case. I'm very interested in Siquieros. Have started threads on him.
