and the text:

Jackson Pollock (1/28/12-8/11/56)
Flying Spaghetti Monster c. 1945
(Titanium, Obsidian, Glass)

An engagingly rare work from the American Master, Flying Spaghetti Monster
represents Pollock's unique foray into the culinary arts. Hand-formed in his Manhattan studio prior to moving to Springs, NY, this piece is known to signal Pollock's emerging "drip" or "pour" technique.

Art critic Hudson Huffington Morgan IV, writing in The New Yorker in 1947, describes this work as a "disgustingly sensuous homage to the various women of his life, redulent of garlic, fresh basil, screaming El trains and hot summer nights. Desparing of the confines of the City, Pollock was bursting with energy, sodden with new ideas, in love with himself and pasta."

Well, that's my morning gone,on something I never planned to do... Still here's my result, (though I do not think I will be showing it to the guys from Pixar!)

Anyone know where I can get a copyright free version of Also Sprach Zarathustra? Or a 1x4x9 proportioned pizza box?!?!
