What year is the piece by Sylvia Sleigh at 7.53?

I'm glad you showed some Jack Whitten pieces. Those are works that are not often displayed in galleries and they shoud be in museums by now. Thanks James, great video.

the whitten's are wonderful and timeless but other work seems really dated and boring ie..sleigh and bernestein...big phallic imagery is a big cliche...

well done, my friend, enjoyed the interviews.

no way am i saying that this piece is any ol ''cock and bull'' story, james

but (if i may say), there certainly seemed to be more cock than bull to this story!

(a cheap attempt at humor, sorry)

James, thanks for bringing your phallic presence to YouTube.
