no worries, Lotesse, I assumed you didn't see my post, not surprising since we nearly posted at the same time IIRC
Elanor, is that painting by Hieronymous Bosch? Hieronymus Bosch? I've seen both spellings and I'm not sure which is correct. Don't know the title either, but the style reminds me of Bosch's masterpiece, Garden of Earthly Delights. |

It's Bosch, and it's The Haywain.
Sort of like Constable on LSD

Yes, I chose one of Bosch's tamer paintings...
My dad and aunt made up a song about Bosch when they were kids (their parents were both painters so they grew up with lots of exposure to art). It started something like this: We are the creatures of old Bosch, He painted us with a big paint brush. But I can't remember the rest. Why don't you each put one up, Hasty Ent and Draken? |

While we're waiting on Draken & Hasty Ent, thought I'd give you all something to chew on... I have always dug on this particular artist.

Yep, I like this guy, too, Lotesse. In 1986 I was lucky enough to see an exhibit of his in East Berlin:
I'll think on what image to post. |

He, he. Robert Rauschenberg. I thought it was a brass eagle; that's a REAL stuffed eagle?

this one is probably difficult, so I'll leave a few clues:
the Rauschenberg Lotesse posted reminded me of an exhibit in East Berlin, which reminded me of Berlin and my trip there when I briefly stayed in this artist's studio.... this artist produced socially critical work, and in later years he made work in partnership with his wife (such as the installation below) Last edited by Hasty Ent : 12-13-2005 at 09:03 PM. |

A DaDa artist, oh, it's on the tip of my memory, *furiously scratches head* oh, I know this one! Dammit, what's his name... Good one, Hasty Ent!

Hasty Ent, that one piece you listed, it's not Marcel Duchamp, is it?

So, Hasty Ent & Shah, what are those artists!! It's been a while, and no one can figure them out. Well, while everyone's still pondering them, I'll show you guys one -
