Description
Text in text bubbles, in red and blue.
In red: "THE MAIN PROBLEM IS YOUR DRAWING LACKS A FUNDAMENTAL IDEA IT HAS NO PHILOSOPHICAL PREMISE WHATSOEVER THE WORK IS MERELY A SERIES OF COMPLETELY SENSELESS EPISODES. OH, I'TS AMBIGUOUS REALISM IS PERHAPS QUITE AMUSING BUT WHAT IS THE ARTISTS REAL INTENTIONS? TO MAKE US THINK? TO FRIGHTEN US? FROM THE VERY OPENING GESTURE THERE IS A TOTAL LACK OF POETIC INSPIRATION REALLY THIS COULD BE A MOST PATHETIC DEMONSTRATION PROOF THAT PAINTING IS FIFTY YEARS BEHIND ALL THE OTHER ARTS. THE WORK DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THE MERITS OF THE GREAT AVANT GUARD THOUGH IT HAS ALL THEIR DRAWBACKS. I MADE SOME NOTES BUT I DOUBT THEY WILL BE OF MUCH HELP TO YOU."
In blue: "Gillmour's got a machete mouth and a penchant for the doublecross. Creator of and the artist follows a relentless upward progress a virtuoso study in human vulnerability that manages to be hilariously appauling yet deeply compassionate. Brilliantly effective Gilmore is a conquestador of the gutter. His vision is vitriolic never dull. He is still the quintessential painter of the North American heel. Shot through the jugular with deadly accuracy. It would be hard to even come close to Ghilmours ability to compress the most words into the smallest ideas. In what is probably the most breathtaking and revealing study of one mans quest for greatness Glimmer reveals all."
