About the Work
"Mere Daubers 6" is Brad Faine's visual ode to art critics – famous and infamous – and a reminder to be true to oneself! Brad Faine’s latest explores artworks that might not have convinced upon first assessment but eventually won over the world.
The text background for Mere Daubers is comprised of the names of famous art critics and the title of the print references Baudelaire’s famous opinion of Claude Monet, ie: that he was a ‘mere dauber.’
Faine’s montage of images includes the likes of Picasso, Munch, Van Gogh, Morisot, de Kooning, Malevich, Chagall, Toulouse-Lautrec, etc., all vilified at some point in their careers. "Mere Daubers 6" is a framed 42 x 42.5 - inch digital pigment print with diamond dust on canvas. "Mere Daubers 6" is part of a 12 piece suite created in 2018.
