Appropriation 4. Conceptional ideas5. Minimalism6. Performance art.7. Pop artI would like to see Monet's Impressionism in contemporary art!

This is a rock I found at the shopping center yesterday. i joined the group on FB and posted it as being found. Got a reply from a lady who said her daughter painted this one and hid it yesterday. She as excited that it had been found. You can check to see if your local area does anything like this, or start one yourself. Just create a FB page dedicated to your art drop group and start hiding little treasures around town with a link to your page. :) I think it's a great idea. less

His art exposes David's life and personality in how he related to it. It is quite interesting. It's unusual to learn about one kind of artist's thought about art he enjoys by other artists. Sotheby's is an auction house. There are many branches of it throughout the world. I think there is one here in Houston. Anyway, Bowie was quite a collector and his collection is worth seeing. less
