Also, here is a link to the Saatchi gallery's collection of David Salle. He's one of the few artists that always has the term "postmodern" attached to his work. I actually like the gallery's descriptions

If you could commission an artist to create a monument to sit in some New York landmark, what artist would you commission and who would you commission them to sculpt?
Michelangelo. King George III of England, who benevolently granted America its Independence, but remains woefully uncelebrated by the current incumbents of our colony.
...can't be all bad, right?
