Yes, the line quality is different. Yes, also, in that these Corrie pieces are more person and place specific. <BR/><BR/>I didn't say they were bad, did I?

At first glance, they do have a similar touch, but Corrie’s drawings are more scratchy and agitated. Pettibone uses cross-hatching, and typically creates clearly recognizable subject mater. Pettibon also has more of a pop culture focus, where I think Corrie’s work is more about his inner world. Also, and most importantly, Pettibon usually uses text to aid his communication. As a result, you get a pretty good inkling as to what he is trying to say. Corrie’s work on the other hand, is layered with his own private language of symbols. You have to use a certain amount of intuition to derive meaning.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8694556.post-1126792095241413982005-09-15T09:48:00.000-04:002005-09-15T09:48:00.000-04:00Thanks, Martin.
