From: J Category: Art Date: 06 January 2010 Time: 07:42 AM Review: Mark Tansey is not young. He painted some blue pictures of mountains, caves, and other stuff, when you look closer they have faces in them. They are a combination of paint effects and what looks like the use of a projector. They make me think of dead painting and French salon painting of the 19th century. Why did that period of painting flop, what is missing? The same thing which is missing in most painting now.
