Hi Jono
ReplyDeleteInteresting choices. I asked you to stick with 20th century subjects, which would rule these out, wouldn't it? Let me know what you mean by "true representation." Do you mean naturalistic image-making, such as how a photograph looks? Also remember that just because one aspect is modern, other aspects might NOT be considered modern - per Barnard.
