Is that act of voting against an artist you love not an intrinsic part of the cruel dramatic spectacle that is the Infinite Art Tournament? You cannot chase all those brackets to a point without tragedy and loss. If you have managed to get this far without voting against a favorite artist, I'm surprised, but your time will come. mrs.5000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-10157730493817412452013-10-12T07:39:50.984-07:002013-10-12T07:39:50.984-07:00Et tu Mrs. 5000?Et tu Mrs. 5000?Chuckdaddynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-51271073493391760292013-10-10T21:19:22.581-07:002013-10-10T21:19:22.581-07:00Et tu Mrs. 5000.

But Durer--though undeniably and maddeningly smug--is pretty damn awesome too. Even awesome in a sweeping, history-shifting sort of way.

(Looking through last 2 match-ups...) Yes, it appears I am the only one. And now, the mean bully Durer is getting ready to pick on nice sweet Portland boy Diebenkorn, master of creating art right on the abstract/representational line? Is anyone with me to bring down the overrated German Goliath?
