"Initially it may have been difficult for many viewers to accept Kenny Schart as a painter within any tradition, because his formative work seemed to be locked within the specific time, place and style from whence it was spawned. Yet, assuming for the sake of argument that an artist's vision will not be convincing today until it permits a critique, however back-handed, of art's self-importance, we can see that with Scharf, good painting often came disguised as a fashion trinket, a badge of species recognition intended primarily for image-junkies." from the text of Dan Cameron
