Luis Toledo
29 06 2012The first time I went through the Papal Apartments I had 2 results. First, my neck hurt from looking up at all the work on the ceilings. Second, my eyes hurt because there was no relief from the paintings. They were everywhere. There was no place for the eyes to rest. It was an orgy of visual images. And though it was great art, it made me want to vomit. Out of my eyes. And thats how I see Luis Toledo’s work. I can’t make a judgment on it because there is no relief from it in his work. There is no focal point. I get some kind of aesthetic vertigo.
And on a completely different note. Here’s another Luis Toledo playing a french horn. A blast from the past. It is very entertaining.

Inigo Aragon
29 06 2012People gone. Murdered. Abducted. Or just older. There is a sense in these collages of Inigo Aragon of time. Time passing us by. Leaving us behind. Memories. Remade. Everything is haunted.

Gerard Bertrand
28 06 2012Bertrand’s work is very interesting. And fun to look at. I do wonder about using these images of popular/cultural figures. I’ve used them myself. Their iconic quality allows one to investigate ideas or images that wouldn’t necessarily work if one were using private individuals. But the impression may seem like parody or satire. I find myself using Hitler, Monroe, and Einstein in all kinds of circumstances. Maybe its laziness.
(I must avoid the word ‘just’.)

Stanley Spencer
28 06 2012Stanley Spencer was one strange man. You can see it in his paintings. It is difficult to comprehend that he was born in the late 1800s. His work seems so contemporary. He seems to have so many stories to tell. Each canvas is like a short story. His paintings of historical events look like events of his own time. And the figures in them appear almost like caricatures of real people. Exaggerations. Everything is a commentary. Wonderful work.

Alejandro Chavetta
27 06 2012Alejandro Chavetta’s work is varied. Some of it is a more traditional collage. Other is experimental. I’m of two minds about his work. And I think that means that one’s enjoyment of it is dependent upon one’s state of mind when you look at it. Right now I’m tired.
