LivingHome-Grant Wood January
From Image Source Page:
" This painting portrays snow-laden shocks of corn that recede into the distance, like a line of armored soldiers, in a white, otherwise featureless landscape. Wood beautifully rendered the irregular patterns of frozen snow and icicles hanging from the corn. Close examination reveals that the snow is not simply white but a complex mix of dozens of colors. In the foreground, the tracks of a rabbit zigzag through the white landscape and enter a hole in the cornshock. Painted at a time when Wood and his work were under attack at the University of Iowa, the piece explores opposing themes of shelter and oblivion.Along with Thomas Hart Benton (1889-1975) and John Steuart Curry (1897-1946), Wood is one of the three major figures of the Regionalist movement, which dominated American art of the 1930s. The theme of the abundant Midwestern landscape is common in Regionalist painting. However, January represents a surprising inversion of this theme of Midwestern abundance."

LivingHome Ken Kesey
"I'm for mystery, not interpretive answers. ... The answer is never the answer. What's really interesting is the mystery. If you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. I've never seen anybody really find the answer, but they think they have. So they stop thinking. But the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. The need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer."

LivingHome William Eggleston
Source: http://tr.im/lzNA
"Eggleston''s photographs rely heavily on ironic formal juxtapositions, with the added consideration of color. His work also depends on the banality of his subjects: the familiar people and places of his native Memphis and northern Mississippi. Like snapshots, his photographs are candid and commonplace, though they lack the snapshot''s posed artifice and sentimental associations. Instead, Eggleston relies on straightforward documentation to effect a cool, often uncanny, distance between viewer and subject."
