Talk:Robert Beauchamp

Who was the girl? Midgley (talk) 11:33, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Great question. From the oral history which served as the source for the DYK:

ROBERT BEAUCHAMP: I decided, I got very conservative, I wanted to make money. I wanted to go to Cranbrook, take up pottery, and get my degree, because I was in love with a girl.

PAUL CUMMINGS: Pottery?

ROBERT BEAUCHAMP: I'm not going to tell you the girl's name. It's not important. It didn't turn out right, but that was the idea behind it, to get a degree. SarahStierch (talk) 14:03, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Category
This artist is one of four in the category "abstract figurative". The article defining this category was deleted since it consisted of two sentences that were self-contradictory: figurative in art means realistic, so work of art cannot be both realistic and abstract. A work many be abstract but have reference to reality, such as cubism, or it can be pure, or non-objective abstraction.FigureArtist (talk) 07:02, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
