Gerhard Richter’s life’s work is online, a sort-of catalogue raisonne of JPEGs. Much of Ed Ruscha’s work (1958-1992) is too. Whose work would you most like to be able to access in this kind of format? [Update: A commenter points out I should have specified 'living artists.']


Hans Haacke.
Tino Sehgal
Francis Picabia!
Roy Lichtenstein does as well – http://www.imageduplicator.com

Ushio Shinohara on this one, if only because it’s so damn hard to track down quality images and documentation of much of his work.
Robert Motherwell
Polke, Polke, Polke
Orozco
Beuys
Kippenberger
Oehlen
Giotto
Cezanne
Klaus Sluter
Bourgeois
Morandi
etc., etc.
The question quickly becomes; who’s work wouldn’t you want to be access thoroughly?
Dead artist: Bill Traylor
Living artist: Christina McPhee. As jpg stills extracted from her new media works.
Thomas Houseago
Neo Rauch
Twombly & de Kooning of course.
I am partial to modern artists. I would love to see works of Andy Warhol and Willem De Kooning.
