Do you wanna live under communism, mutherfucker? The communists have
murdered millions, and you're stupid enough to stand here asking what's
wrong with Picasso being a communist? This is why you need a good old
fashioned country ass whoopin. Just for general principle, because you are
one dumbass mutherfucker. Someone needs to beat the fucking stupid out of
you.

We don't like communism for the same reason we shouldn't like Christianity.

Paul is confused and threatened by art that challenges the viewer's
assumptions.
He's much more comfortable with stuff that reminds him of hot cocoa,
America, and Mommy.

Not true at all. Of course, you are a stupid fool, no need to remind anyone
of that. But Picasso WAS a communist, as I said. Do you think that fact
had nothing to do with his rise to cult status? He sucked, and so do you,
Orange. Just remember. Three words for you, asshole. Caravan of Death.
Just remember.

I'm with you on this one, paul. I like the Kinkade stuff because it does
make me think of hot cocoa, American, and Mom. Didn't know Picasso was a
commie, but there's nothing in his art that, ahem, "challenges my
assumptions." It's just plain not fun to look at.

Picasso sucked??????
You amaze me more and more every day with your moronic statement. Do you
know anything about art, or is thhis just your personal opinion?
I actually like Kinkaid's work because of the light thing (I think it's
cool) but he is not even in the same league as Picasso. Not even in the
AAA, not even in the AA, not even in the A.

I am not judging him by his political leanings or affiliations. I am
judging him by the beauty and meaning of his art. It's too bad you can't
appreciate the fine qualities some people have, and recognize that there
are very few people in this world are in agreement on everything. Like you
think we all should be with you.

Just humor me for a moment with a hypothetical. Let's say Picasso had been
a devout Nazi and advocated spreading Nazism throughout the world. Would
you still have judged him by the so-called 'beauty and meaning' of his art?

Kincaid basically mass produces his art. The same cottage will appear in
several different painting. Others do the finishing work for him. To own
an "original" Kincaid is not saying much.
They do make the best jigsaw puzzles though.

Ahhh, that explains my ambivalence about his work. I can look at his
work and acknowledge that he's very good, but there has always been
something that bugged me, and now I realize what it is: once you've
seen a couple of his paintings, you've seen them all. They *look*
mass-produced. It's the same reason I got mad at Stephen King about
1980 and have boycotted his work ever since.

I loved "The Stand" and "The Shining". Then I read "Fire Starter" and
"Christine" and thought, Oh brother. How silly. But "Cujo" was such a
lousy -- and obvious -- piece of commercial shlock that I stopped
reading his books.

I feel this way too. I enjoy looking at his art, but something has to be
different, such as a waterfall beside the cottage, a waterwheel, or something,
otherwise, you're right, I can't tell them apart! I do know that every cruise
ship art auction has a TON of his work to sell on board though!

Why don't you get one of his boxed chipsets. You can kill two birds with
one stone that way. Play poker with the chips, have the box for display on
a bookshelf, and you don't have to suffer looking at one of his paintings
all day. Of course, if I had to have either a Kincaid or Godard hanging on
my walls, I'd chose the latter. Of course, if I wanted an a piece by an
artist's who has work absolutely everywhere, I would choose Wyland and his
whale paintings, sculptures, etc. over either Kincaid or Godard.

I agree with you about Wyland, I almost bought a piece of his, can't remember
the title, but it was a whale's tail with the moonlight hitting it...totally
beautiful.
I've seen his poker box set...one day I'll get it. : )

Well, we have completely different tastes in art.
I think my favorite is Marc Chagall. It's probably because I was the PR
rep for an art gallery for a time and we did a big retrospective and I
came to research and appreciate his works. No Paul, it is not because he
was Jewish. Many of his themes are biblical (old testament). You might
actually enjoy his work, but being surrealistic, it's probably too far
over your level of comprehension.

The surrealist Salvador Dali is what got me interested in art. He had some
really trippy stuff, also Rene Magritte.

Mo makes assumptions about things of which he knows nothing. He also lacks
reading comprehension. I explained why I like Chagall.

i attended a college that was packed full of pretentious, artsy twits.
i've met many like you many times. want to know the real reason people
like you talk about such nonsense in such meaningless ways? you want
others to be impressed. how could we not be universally impressed with
your intellectual prowess given our unlimited access to your adroit

can't argue with that, but art is not only about aesthetics.
An example is the Edvard Munch Scream we were talking about yesterday.
Certainly not aesthetically pleasing to most, yet considered a brilliant
work of art by many.

Yeah, they're cheesy. They're pretty enough to look at, but the whole concept
is just too gimmicky. At some point, Wal-Mart will probably start carrying

WOW first time I have heard a reader rip King. I personally love his
books and have read every single one of them some are kind of dumb
(Geralds Game), but on the whole he paints a lovely picture for a
reader and usually makes you care what happens to the characters. A
very good traight of a good writer.
Do not take offense I just disagree and really enjoy reading King. If
you are an avid reader and would like to try something different try
either Clive Barkers The Great and Secret Show followed up with
Everville or try Tad Williams with his Otherland series. Barker is
weird as many will probably know from Hellraiser and Tad is a Sci fi
writer and his Otherland serious circles around a man made internet
with VR that completely imerses people who use it online.

I'm with Peg on this one, I switched over from King to Koontz as soon as I read
my first book of his, "Watchers".
Now HE can write.
Although I will admit that ever since "It" I have never looked at clowns the
same again.

Mr. Murder was my first Koontz read (I'm sure Paul G. loves the description of
the Network), and I enjoyed it alot. Enjoyed the next few books, but then got
tired of the same old same old story lines. And his slams on what he considers
degenerate lifestyles got old on me also.

I have read every Koontz book as well and like his also, but my opinion
is King is far superior to Koontz, plus Koontz affinity to the
intelligent dog is kind of hoaky after using in EVERY book he writes it
just gets annoying and EVERY story ends in a happy ending. I guess
thats not such a bad thing though.
Strangers and Mr. Murder were the best Koontz books IMO.
Just my take.

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon. Short novel, interesting and entertaining read;
doesn't follow the std. King formula (esp. if you've stopped reading since
1980). He has improved alot since then.
If you like that, then you should really like Green Mile.

60 minutes did a big piece on him maybe 5 years ago.
But his jigsaw puzzles are great.
This is from wikipedia
Thomas Kinkade (born January 19, 1958 in Sacramento, California) is an
American painter most widely known for his mass-produced prints. He is
marketed as "Thomas Kinkade, Painter of Light," a trademark owned by Media
Arts Group, Inc. (a public company in which Kinkade is a primary
investor).It is a puzzle as to how one can trademark a descriptive phrase
that has been in use for almost 400 years to describe Jan Vermeer. Just open
your Janson's or do a google of Vermeer "painter of light."[1] [1] The
phrase "painter of light" has also been associated with 19th century artist
J. M. W. Turner.
Kinkade is, according to his website, America's most-collected living
artist.[2] He has been criticized for the extent to which he has
commercialized his art (for example, selling his prints on the QVC home
shopping network). Others have complained that his paintings are merely
kitsch without substance.[3]

There is a large gallery where I live that features Kincaid's works.
Brilliant use of light in his paintings.

Yes, he's called the "Painter of Light" for that reason.

Look through the windows at all the lights on in the houses. You would

Yes. Of course. But if we could get rid of the environmental whackos who
are holding back our nation's progress, we could have been so far advanced
by now with nuclear power that electricity would be so plentiful and cheap
that it would be impractical to meter it. Thankyou liberal morons!

there is really a ton of truth in what you write.
What really hurt was when the safe guards reahed a true working level the bad
press was already in place. Bottomline is there shoould of been a huge number
of plants build in the 1990s before that there was still some true concerns but
advancements in the 90s removed most but the public was already sold one line of
truth that became crap but never informed it had turned to crap.

Oh yeah and Kincaid has a gallery by me also and I do not know about
mass producing, but his paintings are pleasant to look at. And the
ability to make the light jump off the canvas is nice also.

Something very very creepy about the way the guy with the cane next to the dog
is standing, waiting for the little girl walking up the block. Hard to tell w/
my monitor resolution if it's a tophat or a Stetson, but creepy nonetheless.

That guy is famous for one reason. He sucks Satan's cock on a daily basis.
He may be a talentless hack at painting, but he is very good at fellating
Lucifer, and he has been paid well for his finely honed skill.
