Those are the most bizzare and disturbing 'master pieces' I have ever accidentally looked at. There is a limit to acceptable creativity and style,
and these guys are WAY beyond it. Hauntingly beautiful doesn't do these justice - perhaps nightmarishly beautiful? Uh oh! A contradiction of terms! I
mean, come on, naked people running around, birds eating naked people, flutes up people's assholes, birds coming out of assholes, women being raped
by demons, women helping men throw up, cities in burning ruin, a knife through an ear, a flying archer-penguin wearing ice skates, demons eating
humans, raped women on hospital gurneys, the Sun-Disk of Aton (
www.kingtut-treasures.com...), babies in utero? Please, tell
me how this is art? The last one SEEMS "happy", but I think that gray object is a toppled statue. Since when are statues toppled without a violent
uprising? Art is Michelangelo, Art is Rafael, Art is Bach (a Musician, yes, I know). Art is not hallucinogenic visions of Hell. Sure, this "Art's"
quality and detail may be top notch, but the style and themes are something out of a derranged luantics mind. Please, go see a psychologist if you
consider this Art - I don't want a lunatic walking freely around, endangering my life becasue he sees violent sex acts and human suffering as Art.
