Too many good artists in this one! Especially in the non-painting category. Impossible to choose between Goldsworthy and Mach, and I'd love to have Lange in for some photographic representation in the tournament.
Definitely going for Maskull Lasserre though.
Sigh ... I really want to vote for the squid, but that means I would drop Escher. All right, I'm following my own heart, and voting for Ernst Haeckel. Sorry, Escher. I'm sure you'll get enough votes from everyone else.
I'll go for Escher, Mach
Escher and Lange
Escher, Goldsworthy.
I'll go with Lange and Escher.
I'm a big Goldsworthy fan, and I'll also go with Escher.
Haeckel and Lange are my choices.
TB
Plenty of strength in this one, no? Goldsworthy without any doubt, for me, but lots of contenders for the number two spot.
Much as I love Escher -- I nominated him as the first artist in the Play-In pool, and think it's bizarre that he's not on the main Tournament list -- I'm going to vote from my heart: Ernst Haeckel. There, I said it.
Goldsworthy and Haeckel. Although I wonder how much that's affected by the fact that they were first.
Goldsworthy and Haeckel, I guess.
Though if Haeckel was comfortably ahead of Escher, I would have given my vote to Lasserre -- like voting third-party in presidential elections when I live in a "safe" state for whatever major-party candidate I prefer.
Votes-by-mail for Haeckel and Lange, with a note of regret for abandoning Goldsworthy.
Goldsworthy and Lange.
With this round complete, Goldsworthy and Haeckel get their ticket to The Big Show. Escher and Lange both lose out by a single vote. One lousy. single. vote.
Thank you for voting in the Play-in Tournament!!
The second painting you have by Albert Namtjira is actually by another Australian Aboriginal called Peter Taylor. See the signature in the left corner.
