  Yes Im with you there Rick.. its an excellent post. I was staggered at her rise and I lived in London in those days when she suddenly hit the marketplace and her work was the talk of the town at the time. The problem was then that painting had become unfashionable. Nothing entered into those annual awards that help fund the talented artists of the future got a look in if it used the traditional media. The feeling amongst the cognescenti..if thats the right word..was to reward something new, anything new. Everything that could be done with a brush had been done with a bruish...that was the notion. Hence the rise of these works of art and artists that arent about anything at all and probably, I say probably, but who can know...but probably wont stand the test of time..after all things like an 'unmade bed' are not be home friendly, so wont be bought and sold by zillionaires to hang on their vacant walls, so are essentially museum pieces only. So over time will be limited in their appeal.
