Something eerily familiar about graphic art.

under sea irony

Paintings frequently looking out to the viewer externally emotionless, because art does not imitate the visible.

I'm not a mathematician, but I'm guessing that this is the kind of image that might be involved. Rectangles have once again showcased unparalleled innovation. If you were to squeeze pictures like a lemon you would get nothing more out of the picture.

Mermaids are not all that wacky, and the viewer is encouraged to journey into subjective interpretation.

hidden images, visual perception

Irony, the artistic phase of water.

W.J.T. Mitchell, What do pictures want ? Graphic art.

To arrive at the edge of the page's knowledge, seek out the most ludicrous ideas, put them on paper together, and have them ask each other the questions they are asking themselves: Are absurd pictures being convicted of the worthlessness of our opinion?

Good art is astronomically improbable.

visual riddles

Without personifications, the idea is not visible.

"Abstraction continues to be an absolutely necessary antidote or counterspell to the aesthetics of distraction, the visual noise offered by mass media and everyday life."

W.J.T. Mitchell

What makes art memorable

A young mistress is better than an old master. Where did all those years go?
