The Declaration of the Equality....
One Nation Under God AKA Steve Kreuscher (see more by this artist)
This piece of artwork is " Stand # 6 ", in a new series titled, "The Seven Stands of In God We Trust".
Title; "The Declaration of the Equality of All Quality Paintings"
"...All quality paintings have been created equal by people, who also have been created equal; not one of them greater, than the other one.
Take any and every quality painting and flip over the canvas, exposing it's bare backside and you expose the great equalizing factor of the raw nakedness of, both the naked wooden frame, like human bones, and the naked cloth canvas, like naked human skin. This great equalizing factor, proclaims loud and clear that all quality paintings have been created equal and have an equal right, according to all natural laws, to have an equal amount of space and time, to be hung in an art museum, in perfect equality, next to a Rembrandt, a Da Vinci, a Picasso or any other great master, for the whole world rightfully to be able to see it, to study it, to enjoy it and to learn from it."
I will here explain what I mean by quality painting; A quality painting is not gimmick art, or minimal art. To me, I will say at the risk of loosing a lot of fans, but here goes; I totally believe that a quality painting comes from a hard working dedicated artist, not at all from a lazy artist, but from an artist, who has worked their buns off developing and honing their talent putting their whole heart into it. A 30 feet tall white canvas with one little black dot on it should not in a million years be in an art museum. I do not see Drippism, scribblism, minimalism or readymades as quality art. I see those lazy worthless, totally talentless artworks as "Refrigerator Art". My 7 year old granddaughter's artworks are a 100 times better quality, than those. "Refrigerator Art" is totally destroying "Modern Art", and such artworks, which totally lack any quality whatsoever, should not be in an Art Museum, but should be taken out of the Art Museums and put back on the refrigerator where they belong. Salvador, Dali saw the extremely decadent trend in "Modern Art" and he spoke against such decadence also, just like I am here doing.
Artist's Statement;
"If a good artist's artworks are really worth millions of dollars, when the artist dies, then those same artworks are worth millions of dollars also, while the artist is still alive, because neither time, nor death, nor the public finally realizing the worth of the artist's artworks, can change the true worth of the artist's artworks. Anything, other than this statement, is merely games, which the so called professionals of the public art world play, for huge profit. And those games, which the so called professionals of the public art world play, for huge profit, are like spitting on the artist's grave.", especially because the same so called professionals wouldn't give that same artist "The Time of Day", before that artist died."
