Are you sure you know who you are talking about? I saw him talk. He doesn't seem like he has much interest outside of music, technology, computer games. I even looked online and I can't find any evidence of politics.
Creepy.
The art world is the biggest money laundering operation in existence. Rich people are basically using artwork as instruments of debt and transactional payments.
Baby got back
In the book “Most Evil” the author (son of the suspect your are talking about) goes into some detail about his father being good friends with Man Ray and how they were both sexual sadist.
That violin has a crack in it.
A crack artist.
The pic is very nice but would be better without the headdress and violin holes. It shows the female form very exquisitely but not obscenely. The headdress and violin holes take away from the beauty of the lady. I like it.
It is not worth that kind of money. Not even near that type of money.
In the world of string players, those holes are known as “f-holes.” I’m not joking.
IIRC he’s believed to have been involved in the murder of the Black Dahlia.
Those are the f holes?! I think I’ve been doing something incorrectly.

I did see another article by a conservative professional musician who was lamenting the fact that so many of his associates seem to be deranged Leftists, and he wrote this:
"...I began to realize as well that almost all of my musical heroes and muses were infected with this new brand of leftism/socialism/communism/hatred of the land/culture that I loved, and which had given me countless opportunities to thrive. Peter Murphy, Thomas Dolby, Depeche Mode, Gary Numan and especially Devo, (among MANY others) began to write albums devoted to hating one man, and then tooling on an entire way of American life. I started to feel like I was in Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, and was one of the last free-thinking humans left alive..."
I am pretty sure that one interview I read was not a bad day, given what this guy wrote, I am pretty sure he is one of those people...
Not as bad as Roger Waters, but...pretty bad. It did ruin his music a bit for me, but not as bad as Roger Waters which made me swear off Pink Floyd. (I saw Roger Waters some years ago in concert (back in 2004, I believe) and it was 2-3 hours of multimedia America Hate...I was stupid, I had no idea.
I had gone with about ten people, and I didn't want to ruin it for them, so I just left my seat and walked around so I didn't have to see it.
Sadly, it seems a high percentage of FR replies over that last few years are people attempting to be witty or funny. It gets old, frankly.
To your point, I always thought Man Ray should have put the f holes a little lower on the back. Just my eye, I suppose. That placement is about right for a violin.
Outstanding.
