Thank goodness someone understands that this is art we're looking at here.

# My opinion is jaded by your surprise that anybody else has ever seen Picasso's light paintings.

Dude I was totally kidding with mictoboy - believe me I am not surprised that you know about Picasso's light paintings! The jest is that if you work in the art world to any degree lots of people would say "I see what you did there" not with a laff but with a chin rub and a discussion about the meaning of removing the protagonist from the image to create a 'new discourse on the nature of memory and society's ability to appreciate history in the digital nowism'. Me I'm just having fun :)

# i liked the way you recontextualised the underlying metaphor of the piece
whilst retaining picasso's indelible mis-en-scene

I shall simply say thank you, it is the appreciation of one's peers that one appreciates, even if the appreciation has no bearing on the work.

Well, that's OK, then.
Drinks all round!

free beer is not nearly as un-appreciated as Picasso's light art experiments.

# I don't know them, so Vienna.
Not too bothered though. I just think it looks like a ghost man with a neon whip.

# Pablo Picasso, correct?
I think he is vastly under-appreciated for his "light art". For the time, it's amazing.

# Picasso is under appreciated?
Pretty sure he is one of if not the best known artist of the 20th century

# Nah, I mean his light stuff.
Maybe it's the circles I move in, hell I dunno.

# they were famously the star of Life magazine in 1949
you didn't get a much bigger global platform back then

yeah, as a start point for the project I'm using some of the LIFE magazine best images of the 20th century, but many of them are just pure Americana like the Mickey Mantel one.
