Judd, Ivanov, Kitaj, Canaletto!
ReplyDeleteAmigoni, Judd. I think I have Canaletto/Daubigny fatigue.
ReplyDeleteSusan votes for "Judd, Kitaj, Canaletto & Daubigny."
ReplyDeleteLike Candida, I've got Canaletto/Daubigny fatigue, but I'll vote for them out of this lot. And Della Quercia.
ReplyDeleteI'll vote for Canaletto and Della Quercia, and contemplate, but refrain from, driving a spike in Donald Judd's finely machined blandness.
