  7. Bloobeard says:

    I love the placement of the images. Its like Dali is looking at Van Gogh and thinking “you did *what* to your ear!?”

  8. Guess Again says:

    …and thinking…”HOLD that pose…I’m going to paint you!” haha

  9. Guess Again says:

    …and both artists’ works are mind-blowing when they are a foot from your face…

    haha…I said blow….

    That’s partly true. Though I’d like to think that the making stuff is a little bit greater (suffering is usually spent while making the work). Van Gogh certainly did suffer more, but he lacked the opportunity to be a commercial whore like Dali (also, Van Gogh made GOOD paintings). Dali made fake surrealist-esque paintings intended for mass consumption, not expression. In that, he was successful. Which is a shame really, because he was talented. He could have spent his time making good paintings too.

    ‘Ello, Dali? No, I can’t ‘ear you. Speak up! What’s that? No, just been a little absinth minded lately…

    Ok, enough of the bad wordplay. But both were good artists notable for starting or putting a particular distinctive twist on what were new art movements. And even though Dali did commercialize his art more, there were some things that were quite ingenious and worked on multiple levels if you looked at them long enough. (Kinda like M.C. Esher’s art in a way. But with Dali it was a fine artist commercializing his work rather than a commercial artist being noted in the fine art scene.) Unfortunately for VanGogh, nobody really knew of him or really cared much until after he was dead. I guess sometimes starting something different doesn’t always pay off.
