Sigmar Polke Rorschach Painting

Sigmar Polke, Untitled Rorschach, 1999

No, I don't see anything sexual here. Seriously! I see a Christ-like figure in the center offering a sort of benediction, with two dancing figures spinning off to either side. Now, before I congratulate myself for being spiritual and enlightened, it might be that not seeing sexual suggestions here is "sicker" than the supposedly (in my mind) more elevated response. Whatever. No one does talk therapy anymore, right?

This image has been everywhere online, since MOMA is having a big Sigmar Polke (1940-2010) retrospective right now. I'm not that familiar with his work actually, so this is an opportunity to enter into a learning curve. The WSJ describes the show as "enormous and noisy."
