The striking image of the Joker is one of the best. (I have the reissued series too.

It's just just thinking of different ways it could be disfigured, perverted or reconstituted. People see art in different ways.<br /><br />I'm reminded of one Dutch artist who made a series of short pieces titled "Famous Paintings" where he animated different segments based on a particular piece. In one, he took Rembrandt's "The Jewish Bride" and viewed it from different art periods and styles shown in a chronological fashion. Kinda fascinating to watch (though the last piece is a bit NSFW).<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfTb_Y3tmcYChris Sobieniakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09838106041175506925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-75970398689578174672014-08-09T20:21:05.536+01:002014-08-09T20:21:05.536+01:00Thanks, Chris.
