Vettriano: Who Cares About Critics?
Jack Vettriano's paintings are wildly popular with the public, and his work fetches huge prices. But he takes a workman's attitude to art: "It's wall decoration for me, I don't regard it as this big meaningful thing. My subjects are men and women getting off, that's all. Mind you, some people don't think sex is serious, but I happen to think it's terribly serious."
I touched on Vettriano, a bit, in an earlier post. This guy is interesting because he is shameless in his straightforward honesty of “just trying to make a buck”. Of course he is making plenty of pesos while the rest of us fight for breath, makes you wonder who is smarter? – DN
