Mike Kelley


I found his approach to art rally interesting, especially the tapestry with the stuffed animals, I wonderful like to see it in person. He was a wacky guy and I respect that. He was odd one in that even when he made a great amount of money he was happy in second hand clothes and his father's old shoes. But suited his style too, of things that are forgotten. It was interesting too that he was inspired by Warhol's pop work and struggled to go into less pleasant aspects society and explore darker concepts with the same sort of theme. His death was sad, and the fact that he had a picture of his ex-girlfriend denotes several emotional issues hat he couldn't deal with.
