    I also enjoy Joan Miro...


    Joan Miró i Ferrà (April 20, 1893 – December 25, 1983) was an ethnic Catalan (of Spanish nationality) painter, sculptor and ceramicist born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.

    Earning international acclaim, his work has been interpreted as Surrealism, a sandbox for the subconscious mind, a re-creation of the childlike, and a manifestation of Catalan pride. In numerous interviews dating from the 1930s onwards, Miró expressed contempt for conventional painting methods as a way of supporting bourgeoise society, and famously declared an "assassination of painting" in favor of upsetting the visual elements of established painting.[1]

    The question is not "Is it art?" The question is, "When is it art?"

    As Duchamps' urinal asked the question, "What brings art from the commonplace to the artworld?" so too does Warhols' Brillo pads and Marylin silkscreens. So... dare I ask... what brings the commonplace to the gallery?
