I think this is in the Israel/Palestine on the wall dividing Jews and Arabs. Right, Rocky? I guess the context makes this image even more interesting/significant/poignant/flippant (delete as appropriate). (Later) Yes, I checked it. Here is a link to another view of the wall sans art: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:AbuDisWall.jpg

Those interested in Bacon might be interested in this excellent 1985 documentary (featuring an interview with the artist) posted on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhaqwlZxJZI

Someone on YouTube is uploading the 1994 documentary L'image indélébile, about Joel-Peter Witkin.
It will probably be a 5 or 6 parter, but right now, only 2 parts are up.
Do not click if you aren't familiar with Witkin's work.
Part 1
Part 2

Having a only a brief introduction I discovered my love for Bacon through the "Lynch on Lynch" book, when Lynch mentions Bacon as a favorite artist, and i became more interested and took a closer look at the art. I've become now a great admirer of the artwork and read the books and seen an exhibition this past summer. The artwork tends to kindle certain relevance in composition and tone. It is also easy to find Bacon paintings within many of Lynch's films, Inland Empire at times looks like a Bacon all over the place in my opinion.
