That's a pretty slim bit of evidence, though. I wonder where the original photo came from.<br /><br />As an artist, I see some similarity between Bok's and Dolgov's artwork, but like I wrote in my article above, Dolgov does not seem to have had the psychosexual problems from which Bok suffered. If I had to guess, I would say that Dolgov was a guy with his head pretty well on straight.<br /><br />By the way, I see more of influence of Lee Brown Coye than Hannes Bok in Dolgov's work.<br /><br />It's such a shame that we know almost nothing about Dolgov. Didn't he have any friends or contacts anywhere? Was he just a figment of Hannes Bok's imagination, like a tulpa brought into the world by force of thought?<br /><br />Thanks for writing and Happy New Year.<br /><br />THTerence E.
