Will Robert Crumb's return to America (beginning in October), spark a revived interest in his art?

It is purely a speculative personal opinion, but it seems that this eminent artist’s return to the U.S. would arouse interest in his work here. Back “home,” Robert Crumb would be more accessible and so would his work.

I would love to see him be invited to the White House. Maybe a short session in the Rose Garden, where Robert and his wife, Aline Crumb, could both do a quick sketch of President Obama. The sketches could be printed and the proceeds could go to foster Jazz or fight climate change…

My suggestion: Mr. Natural greets the President…

Too few of us will be able to afford a Robert Crumb Original piece of artwork, but there are plenty of signed limited edition books, prints and other art pieces that we can get hold of.

And, who know, maybe one day we will be sitting in a cafe and Mr. Crumb will come and take a liking to us and give us a gift.

Of course, his greatest gift is the body of work he has produced for our enjoyment and for those yet come…

Still if you have several thousand dollars to invest in great art… you may find something to your liking in the auctions listed below!

And for those new to investing in art – buy what you like and can afford today! I have personally seen so many opportunities go by, but I suppose Mr. Natural never buys any art….
