Sad for two reasons:

- I never knew about this guy before this post and I really like his work - disturbing as it might be.

- That the person who produced these works is now suddenyl deceased (apparently, wrongfully).

Good bad post. Thanks.

Thirded. I was just about to say how sad it is that my introduction to his work is his death. Thanks though, growabrain.

By my favorite Beksinksi piece, and for a long time now my desktop wallpaper. Really sad to see him go. All the cool people seem to be dying lately (HST).
