Tiepolo's paintings look like he painted a bunch of objects and then photoshopped them together. I think it has something to do with the shading, or whatever. I'm no art expert. The bottom line is that these objects don't look like they belong in the same scene.

Anyway, Tinguely looks like he knows what he's doing and does it well, so he gets my vote.

Tinguely, especially if that 3 wheeled steam powered bike thingy actually runs.

That's some nice optical depth that Tiepolo has going there, but the freaking machines make me feel all Tinguely. Which is to say, I'm voting for Switzerland this time around.

Susan votes for Tiepolo.

And it looks like we have gone for Tinguely eight votes to four, art-voting friends! Stand by for an interesting Terbrugghen/Tinguely Second Round match coming soon! As they say on non-commercial radio, remember, you won't get this service anywhere else. And, I don't even ask you for money!
