Okay, here's a another painter who is an abstract Cubist cum action painter. Just like dear guy Jackson Pollock (who goes around andsplashes paint on his canvass), he paints stuff, wipes or rubs them off or scraps them off and repaint them again. Talk about fickle mindedness... Oh and he seems totally anti-feminist by how he paints women to be savage beasts and an aggressive one at that. Can just feel her hissing at you. It is said to be "celebrating " women as agents of destruction. Oh well... he died of Alzheimer's after that.
