Representational art is back? Or is it just that we find him a tortured soul who groaned about having to paint more Boys Life covers. Well, if he wasn't so over sentimental after all, maybe we can let him in the back door. Who knows? Maybe AA will find a more positive future as well? (The no higher point of view of his work is a load, isn't it?) What about less tortured, more positive photography? Less Joel Peter Witkin, more Elliot Erwitt? :-) Eric Welch Carlsbad, CA http://www.neteze.com/ewelch Those who judge others will burn in Hell!
