DALI WARHOL

In art,marketing is everything!
Salvador signed blank sheets for his apprentices to fill in
Warhol made factory reproductions via his friends
Branding remains an issue for many framed and unframed
Their genius was to synthesis the zeitgeist of our magpie times-
to borrow tools and techniques from machine shops and art pasts
to bend clocks and christ images ,madonnas and celebrities at one
to make elitism for the rich to buy reflections of their best
Masturbatory images haunt Dali/even with Gala as Goddess
while Warhol depersonalized images into soup cans of similarities
Both lived pre-photoshop-in an age when computer art did not exist
their cut and paste montages were from an industrial era
Dali hearking back to Church and Renaissance styles
with surreal images of ants ,blank faces,dancers
among the portraits he entitled as was his wont
Brave both and bold but now historic only-point taken
Their styles assimilated into advertising.
They remind us of other ages-when markets demanded innovation
so these innovators prepared their easels and studios as stages
WE now pay for exhibitions,expecting no new Revelations
New art is PIXAR,AVATAR,INCEPTION.
