Bruce Sargeant by Mark Beard
is a great concept to bring a fairly traditional way of painting with its male subject as objectification into the contemporary realm. Besides their self imposed cleverness the paintings are lushes, inspiring, glorifying and sexy. The mystical figure seems to be demystified and impersonated by handsome man in their prime not shy or demur about their physical attractiveness and sheer creation power. This is an old-fashioned of male prominence but also a beautiful way to use romanization as a tool to remind us that we miss that kind of male in to days world, a sanitized version of course freed from its derogative machoism but ripe with the qualities of the sacred lover.
