Well, on the Albion Band album Before Us Stands Yesterday there is a song called About Paint. I don't have info in front of me here, but could provide, but its certainly not going to be on Youtube.

It's only one verse, but there's a Bob Seger song called Sightseeing which has this, which I always thought was brilliant:

"It was a magical sight to see
An Yves Tanguy in a gallery
The 30's looking back at me
As if he really knew.
I marvelled at the artistry
Pre-dating our technology
A vision there for all to see
Bold and Strong and True"

Its a good question though, have to check my collection tonight.
