Renoir, misogynistic? Hardly.

Good analysis. Angry people who listen to rap probably hate classical.

“And what should go in its place, I ask.

He suggests a work by Tamara De Lempicka, the Polish Art Deco painter—or anyone who isn’t a “white male painter.” “

Funny, the artist only paints white people and while most are female, some are male. The difference is just a matter of style and a reflection of the historical culture. Both are good in my opinion, except for the nudity. There are only some works I cannot tolerate.

Took me learning about Picasso’s life to understand his paintings.

You misidentified the photo. That is Bruce Willis but that is not Renoir.

He can’t do anything extraordinary like Renoir.
