Passing: Andrew Wyeth, Artist (NY Times)

From the New York Times:

Anrew Wyeth, one of the most popular and also most lambasted artists in the history of American art, a reclusive linchpin in a colorful family dynasty of artists whose precise realist views of hardscrabble rural life became icons of national culture and sparked endless debates about the nature of modern art, died on Friday January 16 at his home in Chadds Ford, PA.
