My Bed.
Tracey Emin's "My Bed" is a finalist for Britain's coveted Turner Prize for contemporary art. It is a double mattress heaped with stained and disheveled sheets, surrounded by the debris of indulgence -- discarded stockings, empty vodka bottles, cigarette butts, etc. What is most interesting about the Tony Harris picture of it that appeared in the L.A. Times is not the work itself, but the 18 art critics surrounding it all dressed completely in black. http://digitalconsciousness.com/artists/emin/index.html

Lee Krasner.
Lee Krasner (1908 - 1984) is an Abstract Expressionist. In 1945 she married Jackson Pollock (1912-1956). In 1953 Krasner began to deal with the extreme fustration she felt about Pollock's alcoholism by ripping apart works of hers and Pollock's and then combining these fragments with oil paint to make a series of collages. The current LACMA exhibit of Krasner's work shows these collages as well as Prophecy. In 1956 Krasner left Prophecy on her easel when she went to Europe as part of a trial separation from Pollock. While she was abroad Pollock and one other person were killed in a car crash. Pollock's mistress Ruth Kligman was in the car but survived the crash. Krasner completed Prophecy after this tragedy.
