Daddy's little girl or trailer-park jailbait?
Is this woman wearing nothing but the fur? Why is she grabbing the child's crotch? Does the extended finger allude to the child's sex?
Will we ever know?

I think you are reading too much into Lipking's work. He's so good at making pretty pictures that are filled with empty thoughts and therefore easy to sell (or as in both of these pieces, commission).
ReplyDeleteIf a work of art attracts and makes one take notice, it would be disrespectful to the artist not to contemplate it. Regardless of how shallow or deep the work, at least one layer (symbolic or narrative) can be extrapolated based on the surface.
ReplyDeleteRegarding commissions, what of the work of Goya?
If you're not supposed to read too much into a work of art, what's the point of looking at it? Art is nothing but your own anxious interpretations.
ReplyDeleteLipking is a very good artist who creates a thing of beauty, look a little closer and you will see more.
