Wow ... imagine running into ol' De Daumier-Smith himself at the art 
gallery (:. The two big exhibitions in Sydney at the moment are Andy 
Warhol and Cezanne, but I think I would have liked to see him at last 
year's Beyeler Collection, wandering amongst the lonely Giacomettis (: I 
wonder how `in' to art JDS is? Because `De Daumier Smith' demonstrates 
quite a deep knowledge of early C20th-late C19th painting. It's a wonder 
one of the Glasses isn't an artist, seeing the rest of the family seem 
to have just about all the other artistic bases covered.
