Cubist Impression copyright 2010 by Dave Putnam


This painting in no way has any elements of Cubism. But it is composed of cubes. This is my way of mocking Cubism. Recently a mocking bird has taken up residence in our backyard and I hear it all day long. This has made me think about the general subject of mockery. It seems to me that modern art doesn't do enough mocking. Across all sectors of society you will notice that there is very little good mockery going on. When is the last time you heard some really good mockery? Not for a long time. In my small way I am trying to right this wrong.
