I just watched THE BABY OF MACON again recently, which has triggered another round of viewings of some of my favourite Greenaway films.While I can certainly understand how his style may be a turnoff for some viewers, I have always liked his movies, if only because he exploits the medium to its fullest, pushing the boundaries of cinematography and narrative structure. A bit of background knowledge (OK, maybe more than a bit) regarding art history and dramatic forms definitely helps.
As an aside, if you're looking for the perfect antidote to all this Mel Gibson business, I recommend THE BABY OF MACON or Ken Russell's THE DEVILS--you will feel better afterwards, trust me.
