Abstract Expressionists at AGO

Went to see the above show at the AGO yesterday afternoon, and will also make a second trip before it leaves in early Sept. My personal favourite ended up being by someone I've never heard of before, but it is dynamic:



Several Pollocks too; I like his work.


More thoughts later on show. Will quickly add (gotta head off to work), the I saw the Henry Moore and Brian Jungen thing - think large doggie chewie rawhides cozied up beside giant stone statues - and got snarled at by security for these:






Freezers?? Come on. Did Futureshop run another special?

Anyway, loved the Kathleen Munn exhibit.






Love the cows. Love the colour. The rawhide guy needs to spend some time in this room.

    Pollock - i saw the movie by Ed harris who played himself as Pollack.
    As an amateur,i love art in general including tribal arts which could easily resemble the first photo, My personal tendencies is inclined to surealist paintings, trompe l'oeil, anamorphic expressions.
    Sunday mornings, by the riverside at Lyon there a Creation and art market, i should go and make some pictures for you.

    some of my favorite artists here are jean-pierre Ugarte, Roland cat, Louis Toffoli. i also the polish Siudmak etc etc.

    Thanks for the sharing!
