Dana Schutz foretold human history

 

(Editorial note-- Above is the correct image of Dana Schutz's "The Autopsy of Michael Jackson." Below is the work entitled "Presentation."

 

 "The Autopsy of Michael Jackson." As much as I have been a Schutz detractor over the years, this piece is spot-on accurate. Anyone care to guess how much it's went up in value in the past 48 hours? My own guestimate would be at least into the $2 million range.

Whoops. Guess that'll happen when you do an internet search for Schutz plus Jackson. Either way, it's a very powerful image.

Either way, it's still crappy art.
