Keith Coventry's Untitled (Single Roman, Single Luton Fan) (Oct 06)

Keith Coventry - Red Blobs

Well, whaddya know? The prevalence of crap paintings never ceases to amaze me.  I'm glad I decided to try out a Philosophy module this year, otherwise I would never have discovered this little beauty, hidden as it was in a nondescript 3rd floor seminar room.  Being more secluded than previous 'jobs', especially at 6 o'clock, I was at liberty to get photographic evidence of my methods - note the clever way of getting my replacement poster insert the same size as the old one.

A single Roman, Horatius, held at bay the Etruscan army of Lars Porsena, 6th century BC
and
A single Luton fan held at bay the attacking Millwall fans, March 1985
