For me this is the most powerhouse 2nd-round matchup since Cezanne/Chagall. I'm going Klimt, but I wish the loser much luck in the left bracket.

I like Klimt, but I'm more or a Klee guy.

I like Klimt a lot, but just as a friend, whereas my admiration for Klee is more of a long-term passionate relationship sort of thing.

I'm kinda diggin' Klee today.

Klimt, despite Klee's lovely building blocks.

Klee, but yes - a strong matchup.

Hmm, it's the battle of artists that people in my social class like, but who don't do much for me personally. I guess I'll go with Klee.

Here's a postal vote for Klee in the mailbox.

Klee. My irrational aversion to Klimt continues, but luckily Klee is truly lovely.

Klimt! Klee's great....but so child-like.

It's Klee in a landslide, beating up on the hapless Austrian ten votes to three! On to Round Three for him.
