bart vs black bart on jeweled skull

At the book fair I picked up a great, great book chronicling the  dazzle dogs show from a few years back. I don’t have a “favorite artist” per se, but among contemporary artists I think I like Clare Rojas as much as anyone else I can think of… While flipping through the book I was pleased to find the above image that many of you might have seen before by Andrew Jeffrey Wright (who was in the same show along with Erin Rosenthal). I can’t convey quite why it works for me… but it just does. It’s a great image. Link
