LOL. I'd only skimmed the article and was off to the the NGA to look for a disturbing, colorless painting of a New Jersey factory (forgot the artist & couldn't find it, drat!) that is the exact opposite of Bluemner's work.

There is still something that bothers me about his work. I love the bright colors and the strong forms. But he always uses the same colors and doesn't layer a great deal. Is there something a bit tacky about the work or not?

Tell me more about the NGA and the work you saw there.
