For several artists, dead is a gate for stunning eternal success, a line that divides misery in the past and free ultra famous energy afterward. Art history tells us, the drama of Van Gogh, Francis Bacon, and Frida Kahlo. Their torturing life brought them to where they are now, fame. Would Michael Jackson fit the pattern?
For some, in the other hand, a sudden passing of an artist is a prospective momentum, the force that could mesmerize people up to the highest sorrow. Like these two leading news magazines, TIME and NEWSWEEK, which always quick in responding this typical moment. They would display silence, minimal in verbal, believe that picture could speak a thousand words. This is the art of obituary. Letting people drawn in their own pictures, their own memories.
