Comments on: The Eyes Have It. http://modernkiddo.com/the-eyes-have-it/ Where vintage and modern style for kids meet. Tue, 05 May 2015 22:13:24 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.1 By: mike http://modernkiddo.com/the-eyes-have-it/#comment-552481 Tue, 05 May 2015 22:13:24 +0000 http://modernkiddo.com/?p=7602#comment-552481 Nice tribute to a very under-rated artist. For me her “MDH Keane” girls / young women were the very essence of the early 1960’s. They have become, since my own adolescence in that era, one with my psyche. So the movie was disappointing; “MDH” was who she really was and aside from seeing “Self Portrait Silver” in progress, this part of her work appeared only incidentally among the gaggle of saucer-eyed urchins. Tho i did get to see a couple of unfamiliar ones; thank goodness for pause and zoom functions.
It’s good to find someone else who takes her seriously; i feel as you do about her later paintings as well as the “walter” urchins. (As a little kid in the 50’s my mom was one of those who’d say: ” finish your vegetables; there are children starving in Europe” – maybe that’s why. )
I could go on and on …

I am totally familiar with that Jerry Lewis picture–oh the jester!!! Dying!

And that totally insanely awesome but creepy family portrait. I really appreciate the pieces but don’t own any. I think they’re best in bunches.
