This is Paul Bond's Lao Tzu's Dream. (Do you know what Lao Tzu's name means? Old Teacher. ) Yeah, I'm a total STAN. Look at how he uses hyper-realism (the stones' texture) but utterly surreal elements...you know, the tree & such...knock the viewer a little off balance. Plus, it's a little mockery of the whole hipster cairn-building fad. He's good.

I chose Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam. I chose this because of the beautiful simplicity of it. The minimalism is definitely postmodern, along with the hyperrealism. I live all of the details in this painting and I love looking at old artists' work because I fell like they were so ahead of their time. This is definitely an example I would say was ahead of it's time.
