I had held off purchasing any Super Bowl LVIII collectibles or memorabilia until I found something that I thought was just “awesome”. When I saw this SI Cover, I knew I had to have it. Honestly it’s one of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Along with the captions it captures what Super Bowl LVIII was all about. Your Photog was in the right place at the right time and did a great job of capturing what Chiefs fans all across the country felt at that moment. As you can see I had the perfect place for it, it makes this wall complete and up to date.

Artist's Description
There have been various interpretations of Van Gogh's painting Old Shoes. The most famous is German philosopher Martin Heidegger's essay "The Origin of the Work of Art." He interpreted the shoes as belonging to a peasant woman thus supporting his philosophy of Dasein. Meyer Schapiro criticized this essay by saying that Heidegger projected his own philosophy into the painting and missed one important aspect: "the artist's presence in the work." The shoes speak as "a portion of the self." This is very much in line with Van Gogh's letters, which reveal how he conceived and composed paintings. French philosopher Jacques Derrida defended Heidegger's interpretation, but to no avail. Reliability of equipment (shoes) could only be essential to the peasant woman, whereas Van Gogh's equipment was not the subject of the painting. He might have painted the shoes in bare feet for all we know.
About Richard Barone
I was a great artist in the fifth grade, at least that�s what my fellow classmates and art teacher thought. My parents thought differently, however, and transferred me to a Catholic school, and that was the end of my art career. By the time I got to college, I was convinced that the intellectual search for truth was far superior to the aesthetic. I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree and hadn�t taken one course in art. None were offered, even though the college professed the "liberal arts." In a sense, I was on the same course as Robert Motherwell (philosopher to artist), but for me the end came in the jungles of Vietnam. Philosophy and everything that I had learned�all the teachers, priests, and professors�had deserted me. Except...
