my vote is for Dali

ReplyDeleteI voted for Dali too. His facial hair defies gravity the best, and the crazed eyes are a nice bonus.
ReplyDeleteAny dude can grow a beard or 'stache. I'm going with Frida. Check out Kahlo's 'stache AND the unbelievable uni-brow!
ReplyDeletedarn, it was hard to choose between Frida and Dali... on the one hand, girl can work it! On the other, Dali's 'stache is just flawless. I have to go with him!
ReplyDeleteFrida, no question about it. That brow is almost an upside down stache on her fore head; only she could pull it off.
ReplyDeleteFor my previous birthday, I received a book called "BEARD" by photographer Matthew Rainwaters.
ReplyDeleteJust google his name and you'll know what I'm talking about.
A must-have for artists looking for face-morphological inspiration.
Dali. You can't help but look twice.
ReplyDeleteZINTSY...you got a SYRIA that overtook the
ReplyDelete" RED _ RIDDER 666"...was that supposed to happen?
Cause now, they got all that COMAL in ALLOUS and WONDE!
And that ain't good.
No, that ain't good.
No , that ain't good, at all.
BINLADEN.
And it's all JO?
He's with SCHAR the HO?
And they're all with JONSO?
And so is CARYESS.
He's with JESS and LESS.
And so is TESS and BESSER?
We think the jouney is well over.
And so does YAN- HARCOYAN .
And so does DON.
And also LON.
With RON,
Gonna have to roll with Steele.
ReplyDeleteFreida nomination in this almost encapsulates the whole "what ever you guys can do, we gals can do, to, once we get past the obstacles in our way" argument of art history . . .
ReplyDeleteCourbet
ReplyDeleteHow funny to think of that! I enjoy your posts! Don't like facial hair, though...
ReplyDeleteDali's moustache is unrealistic, even surrealistic, so I voted Brancusi since his moustache is so well and marvelously sculpted.
ReplyDeleteCourbet, most certainly.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Alexi Steele,.....
ReplyDeleteamazing artist and a real personality... come on the rest of these folks are dead.
bah, Dali's moustache is just a gimmick! We're voting for BEST facial hair, not most extreme! (Yes, this is very serious business). I was going to nominate P.S. Kröyer or Velazquez, but since I didn't I'm gonna have to go with Rodin.
ReplyDeleteI was torn between Dali and Kahlo, but then I realized that Dali and Uhde hadn't actually been nominated, so I voted for Kahlo.
ReplyDeleteThe question is what one means by "best". Weirdest would have to go to Man Ray. Dali would of course have voted for himself, as he was a showman as much as a painter, and his moustache was pure exhibitionism, though I like Jeanie W's comment about it defying gravity. Is anyone tempted by this to grow something glorious on his (please, not her) face?
