For decades since, any hack can ruin canvas with mountains of paint and call it "art".

I am surprised you like Murakami - without the Johns, Lichtensteins and Rauschenbergs of the world, a Murukami would not exist. <br /><br />I would put Damien Hirst way up there on the list of overrated artists. But anyone who puts Johns or Pollock on that list should probably look again at art history and be glad for them. We might all still be looking at formal portraiture and paintings of sweet little boats on pristine waters if it weren't for their bravery.DEBORAH GIMELSONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081917239081692690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1769245871994114351.post-62863388012621437842012-03-22T01:02:23.375-05:002012-03-22T01:02:23.375-05:00Continued...

Kelly comes in a close second.<br /><br />Joan Mitchell's work is talentless, ugly garbage not worthy of the materials used to produce it.<br /><br />Some of Rauschenberg's individual pieces are overrated, but as a whole he deserves to be included among the halls of the greats.<br /><br />Richard Serra's work - though elegant - is simply a very expensive execution of extremely simple, un-inventive concepts befitting to your average mechanical engineer or commercial designer.<br /><br />Ditto for the lifeless, uninspired Koons, who - unlike Warhol, who was a true pioneer and who loaded his work with multiple layers of irony - rehashes the premises of Pop with little alteration. Ditto Hirst.<br /><br />Banksy actually has talent and should not be on the overrated list.<br /><br />Kinkaid is cheap, vulgar trash.<br /><br />And finally, the 20th Century's most underrated artist:<br />Leonard Baskin!Artisticideahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03420471050123334569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1769245871994114351.post-55861333830292910812012-02-28T08:12:31.969-06:002012-02-28T08:12:31.969-06:00Agree Rauschenberg, Serra.

Nah, can't agree on those. All brilliant! Slip in Hirst, Emin and Koons and I wouldn't argue. Emin had a show here in Sydney in 2011 which was just pathetic.So vacuous.My grandkid could do that.
