Yeah sounds odd. It fetches paintings of that artist. Maybe we can jira that and take a closer look?
On a side note, I noticed that due to the weak references used in the DataContext to store committed objects, you may see lots of faulting of objects that were fetched in the same context just a few seconds ago. This is probably completely unrelated, and for that we are experimenting with using soft references (instead of weak) via a new ObjectMapRetainStrategy (available in 3.1M3).
