On one canvas,
List of Landscapes, (George Deem) catalogues disparate images in apparently random juxtaposition: a familiar household oleograph (Millet's
The Gleaners); American (Inness) and European (Guardi, Corot) landscapes; a postcard view of an American Main Street with gasoline station; calendar art (English countryside with cows); a family album snapshot ("Uncle Bigboy & cousin Emmett, with Dad & Us in the horse lot"); and a private memory image of an Indiana farmhouse. (Ronald Vance, "Painting Lists,"
Art and Artists, London, February 1968).
Re. "Uncle Bigboy & cousin Emmett, with Dad and Us in the horse lot," see George Deem's painting
Everybody in the Sun, 1966.
