I love the boldness of black & white abstract art. It's so graphic and strong, even if the line is simple and thin. The top etching was one I bought on the street in Madrid years ago, for under $15. I had it framed very elaborately and I LOVE the way it looks. It definitely think the artist was influenced by Picasso.
Now for the real thing. Sort of. Picasso's Guernica enlarged on a highway billboard. Hmmmph... Wonder what he would think about that?
