Karl Rove's photo

[Onlooker]

From the Art Talk column in this month's Art News:

Rove called Avedon "an elitist snob who deliberately set me up .... The portrait is foolish, stupid, and insulting. It makes me look like a complete idiot."

1. "Find true love at E-Harmony..."

2. um.. yeah... the PORTRAIT did it...

[Kerrytravelers]

3. I think the photo captures all the smugness and arrogance perfectly.

[miles 2 go]

19. I think so too.

Actually it gives him more charm than he actually has.

4. He looks a bit like Dick Cheney.

and exactly like himself.

5. Disowning his own face.

:rofl:

6. one look at that picture and you say to yourself 'self, what an elitist turd blossom'

[eshfemme]

7. To me, it's a simple portrait. I don't get the indignation that Rove feels...

The smile's smirky but isn't he always that smarmy anyways? I think the portrait actually does him more justice than he deserves!

[bidenista]

13. agreed

He looks vaguely normal. Quite disturbing, really.

[cliffordu]

8. I wish waiters and waitresses would start spilling whole trays of food on him

every time he eats in public. Just so he'd have to stop plotting and change clothes.

9. it that his leather bottom slave photo on manhunt?

[Sanity Claws]

10. Smug and porcine

Very accurate!
Has the porker gained weight in the last couple of months? He's never been svelte but now he looks like he has a triple chin.

11. I call him Karl "The Pilsbury" Rove Boy

[blogslut]

12. Bless you, Mr. Avedon

Despite your demise 4 years ago, the world through your eyes, lives forever.

14. His face doesn't speak for him?. . . .n/t

[driver8]

15. KKKarl has a face that says, "punch me".

I would gladly take him up on it!

[JuniperLea]

16. Avedon must be a great photographic artist

He captured quite a bit of the essence of KKKarl. It's not near as evil looking as Rove, but last time I checked, regular digital or film cameras still weren't capable of capturing the evil ooze of a man's soul.

17. No darling, you make yourself look like a complete idiot...

Avedon has just captured you.

[islandmkl]

18. hey KKKarl....

you can now appreciate that, without manipulation, the LENS DON'T LIE....

that's you, pal, that's you....

[thenext8seconds]

20. actually Rove himself makes him look like

a complete idiot.

[boomerbust]

21. Neck

It looks like Karl has eatin pert near every day.

22. President of the Elitist Snob Club, U.S. constituancy.
