SFUMATO SALVATOR MUNDI(Art Autopsy)

Body of work-to be dissected posthumously.
No more creating means indepth investigating
Objective correlatives vindicate critics over creator
Vision must cede to versions/art to attack
What is done is hung as if a capital crime
Value as ascribed crucifixation or resurrection?
Do we need Ludovicos more than Leonardos?
Patrons more than prophets,poets,painters?
Visionaries compartmentalized/departmentalized/categorized.
for the purposes of Galleries and Exhibitions
never envisioned by either patron or painter
Assembly of a life's work constitutes a new art-
collage/montage/commentary/guidebook-
all utilize divergent judgements to present
and represent a tapestry rather than one frame
Cartoons,sketches,apprentice work,juvenalia
all jigsaw pieces/a vision of a visionary-
we will never know him or her(posthumously
Maybe Shakespeare was Anonymous
Maybe Mona Lisa was her creator's self -portrait
We do not know.We will never know.
Every line is conjecture -just like his or hers
Just like these..
