Re: Sean Landers:
Abject diva worship-ism?
How about Donald Urquhart, who had a show at White Columns not so long ago, and who is about the same age as Sean Landers? Both are subculture spokespeople, which maybe makes them later turn into preservationists; and both get into self-conscious reckoning of their own predicaments; and both demonstrate how a painting, being handcrafted, is inextricably attached to the absurd person making it, and therefore, just as foresaken and thus, doomed to fail (more than likely).
