Art, propaganda and pornography presented by the artist sometimes known as Arte Barrato (even misspelled as it is here,) some of it his own work and most of it stuff he appreciates and chooses to elucidate and honor.

Mary Boone sentenced for Tax Evasion
She'll be in prison for two and a half years, most likely minimum security (like Martha Stewart). I'm truly sorry to see this and find it ridiculous given Trump's unpunished mountains of tax fraud; but I figure she'll make interesting use of the time in the pen. I don't take a positive view of art dealers in general, but, for me, she is one of the few good ones.
I will always see her as I did, the last of several sightings, when I caught her peeking around the corner at me as I admired her portrait by her friend, Eric Fischl. For all her guts and confidence she has retained her humility and even some vulnerability. Good luck to her.
