imitation of art

Thank you! At first I thought the article was going to be about how great John Currin's work was. I was a more than a little put off... I find his work unsettling and bland. Everything Lance Esplund said resonnated with me. It does seem like he is just stealing techniques. It does seem akward and forced, with no truth! I like how far Esplund went into demolishing Currin's paintings. Haha!
