      Agree completely. I think Pollock was just really good at bullshitting people and once you are a big name you can pretty much make whatever you want and people will add value because of your name.

        He was a commercial artist through and through, that is for certain. His pieces have that je ne sais bullshit feel that comes from people producing art as product, not art.

      Kandinsky is the abstract artist we should be celebrating

      Had to look this up, and wow yeah, that is some very striking, abstract art from someone who has definitely refined their craft and worked hard to do so. Very cool imagery.

      Can’t tell if you are on the Neanderthal man spectrum or Jedi knight spectrum of bell curve.
