Congrats for that find, Rob, it gives me hope to see that some people out there are still selling, AND buying that stuff. Since the 60s it sure has faded from the public consciousness. Most of this is probably made for sale art, but the PNG artists imbue their work with such patina and look of authenticity, it works for me. As Picasso said, as long as a piece carries the spirit of the art form, it does not need to be a hundred years old. Some nice examples there. |
