So, the "Painter of Light" (tm) has passed at the early age of 54
years. The Kenny G of painting is gone...
He may not have been too fast to live, but 54 is too young to die. I'm 54. I
shall be mightily pissed off if I don't live well well beyond 90.
I love this phrase from the article someone linked to "it has become
fashionable for art critics to dismiss his pieces."
"It has become fashionable" - as if it was a mere passing fad among the
ignoranti, and the true artistic value of this oeuvre will come to be
understood with the passing of the years.
Well, I for one, think that's true.
The "true artistic value" of his work *will* be understood ... but
Charmin will remain the number one seller.
