I don't know if I've had too much eggnog but it kinda looks like the wrapping paper that I'm using right now. What if it was found-art of Target Wrapping Paper that someone framed?

this reminds me of some flemish renaissance painting but i can't quite remember it, van der weyden or s/thing (prob not him)

flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:18 (thirteen years ago) link

OMG! this is totally proof that Botero was an anachronistic painter

sarahel, Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:20 (thirteen years ago) link

oh god, yes there's something of him there yean

flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:23 (thirteen years ago) link

i guess botero was influenced by the plasticity and fleshy distention of early flemish portraiture?

flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:25 (thirteen years ago) link

thesis topic4u: Botero's Influence on Contemporary Emo Photography

sarahel, Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:25 (thirteen years ago) link

fat goths' influence on coronary heart disease and shitty music taste

Magic Our Maurice! (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:27 (thirteen years ago) link

:-)

mad <3 for both of u

flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:28 (thirteen years ago) link

the thesis would also need to include a discussion of The Cure's Japanese Whispers album cover

sarahel, Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:29 (thirteen years ago) link

i discuss it thus: DIE MOTHAFUCKA DIE MOTHAFUCKA DIE

Magic Our Maurice! (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 22 January 2011 00:30 (thirteen years ago) link

chill ass juggalo bro

flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 11:25 (thirteen years ago) link

botero is still painting guys, he had some shitty show abt quantanamo bay a few years ago. botero is p terrible

plax (ico), Saturday, 22 January 2011 11:35 (thirteen years ago) link

botero is p terrible

― plax (ico), Saturday, 22 January 2011 11:35 (14 minutes ago)

agreed

if he was still alive today, he would have a tumblr with very respectable reblog stats and that would be more apt to his level

flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 11:51 (thirteen years ago) link

uh no he would have a deviantart page ur refs r all wrong

plax (ico), Saturday, 22 January 2011 12:09 (thirteen years ago) link

feel he would have migrated by now, with some consternation from the deviantart crowd that he must be whoring for a tumblr-to-book deal

sort of irrelevant since he never lived to see any of those sites

srsly tho when i first saw this shit i thought it was just an 'internet thing' and not the work of a much valourized irl artist

flopson fauxhawk (nakhchivan), Saturday, 22 January 2011 12:17 (thirteen years ago) link

its bad in a way its hard to get worked up abt tho

plax (ico), Saturday, 22 January 2011 12:21 (thirteen years ago) link

best guess yet imo!

opeth winfrey (donna rouge), Monday, 24 January 2011 23:54 (thirteen years ago) link

at the very least fruhtrunk was who i think i meant when i said id seen these before. this is making a lot of the same problems for itself even if the resolutions are a little clearer.

plax (ico), Monday, 24 January 2011 23:55 (thirteen years ago) link

miami basel says there was *a* fruhtrunk in the catalogue...

plax (ico), Monday, 24 January 2011 23:57 (thirteen years ago) link

(crosses fingers) please please

VegemiteGrrrl, Monday, 24 January 2011 23:58 (thirteen years ago) link

but hes not in the online catalogue which could be why that didnt work

plax (ico), Monday, 24 January 2011 23:59 (thirteen years ago) link

lol i thought of him when i was thinking of paintings to do Avant Hard (itt the pornification of western culture i think) with

plax (ico), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 00:00 (thirteen years ago) link

artnet sez three different galleries represent him - someone send some e-mails!!

opeth winfrey (donna rouge), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 00:03 (thirteen years ago) link

if we do get this i think that stevie owes us all an apology.

plax (ico), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 00:11 (thirteen years ago) link

hey plax i'm almost convinced this was on an irish textbook cover in the pre-junior cert era. either that or someone i know owns a print

zvookster, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 00:15 (thirteen years ago) link

lol that would be really fucking weird

plax (ico), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 00:16 (thirteen years ago) link

until someone consults a fruhtrunk catalog, there is keyword: miami basel 2010 on flickr...

opeth winfrey (donna rouge), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 00:40 (thirteen years ago) link

Stevie probably removed his bookmark from this thread weeks ago, he's moved on now ;_;

VegemiteGrrrl, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 00:41 (thirteen years ago) link

No no i am Reading v v eagerly!
