So, a classic example of art I don't want myself, but the concept is, I think, effective.Candidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14586276874940437381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-70434013288218514252012-04-14T14:06:20.440-07:002012-04-14T14:06:20.440-07:00A mail-in vote for Bourgeois, with complements to ...<b>A mail-in vote for Bourgeois, with complements to the spider.</b>Michael5000https://www.blogger.com/profile/10148584819327475239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-45883964290832105742012-04-11T14:41:44.311-07:002012-04-11T14:41:44.311-07:00Bourgeois for me.

For both artists, I don't care for the first work at all, but the second is good. On that note (and because I'm too lazy to see the works represented when they were up before - maybe a suggestion to include the previous matchups when the artist comes up again the the IAT, just a thought?) I'll go for Bourgeois, the spider-thing is more cooler.dhkendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04810149407928718294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-10548610059307218422012-04-03T10:23:52.361-07:002012-04-03T10:23:52.361-07:00Bourgeois, who is not at all.Bourgeois, who is not at all.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12772824060632731065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-56944823906575626022012-04-03T06:56:58.329-07:002012-04-03T06:56:58.329-07:00Not that enthusiastic of either, but I'll vote...Not that enthusiastic of either, but I'll vote Bourdelle.Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475862386179357634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-16009283380811224002012-04-03T04:03:44.386-07:002012-04-03T04:03:44.386-07:00BourgeoisBourgeoisChristine M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13673973522206470114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-77645319147049289182012-04-03T01:45:59.194-07:002012-04-03T01:45:59.194-07:00I had never heard of either (nice how this tournam...I had never heard of either (nice how this tournament is introducing me to artists I hadn't known of), and while Bourdelle's archer is nice, Bourgeois's giant spider is wow. Searching for more turns up lots of variations on the spider (and/or the piece has moved around a lot), but other interesting works too. Chalk one up for Louise!pflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16866574024138674337noreply@blogger.com
