A blog about about painting, design and other aspects of aesthetics along with a dash of non-art topics. The point-of-view is that modernism in art is an idea that has, after a century or more, been thoroughly tested and found wanting. Not to say that it should be abolished -- just put in its proper, diminished place.

Blogging Note
Yr Obedient Blogger is in England (then Paris), and Internet contact is iffy. Which means posting may be light for the next couple of weeks.
I've been hitting the art gallery (that's what they call art museums here) scene pretty heavily and will have grist for future reports.
Also saw the new Andrew Lloyd Webber show Love Never Dies, in which the Phantom of the Opera goes to ... Coney Island?!? Kind of a so-what deal in my opinion. No take-away songs. Staging had some interesing Art-Nouveau touches. Probably lacks Phantom's legs.
