Thomas Kincade On the ArtReview Power List; Populists Not Pleased

The LA Times’s culture blog points out that Thomas Kincade is on the ArtReview’s Power 100 list in the final spot. Whether this is hat tip to the realities of the broader market for kitsch or a mischievious wink, is less interesting than the comments the post provoked. They range from the expected anger at everyone from Brits to all manner of Contemporary art to a self-declared student of Renaissance art who admires Kincade’s technique.
