MORE MONEY ART: VICTOR DUBREUIL, PETER HIDE

Here's some more money art, beginning with images Tony Terranova submitted of two Victor Dubreuil works. Beautiful - thanks! -Editor

  Dubriel money painting $2 face
  Dubriel money painting $100 back

Tony adds:

"Those Dubriel barrel paintings are decorating the walls of a California coin and currency's dealers office. He collects that particular artist."

  Victor Dubreuil Barrels of Money

Above is the image from last week's article. Also this week I happened to come across this 2020 work by contemporary Italian artist Peter Hide. Here are images of the front and back of the piece, plus a closeup. Great new word (new to me, anyway) - "crumplage." -Editor

  Peter Hide In God We Trust Peter Hide In God We Trust back
