Hirst has audacity... as do the chapmans....and Oursler,Gormley and a list of name drops....... All I was trying to say was I am a fan of contemporary work.phantasmagoria wrote:HIrst is an untalented, money driven fuck.
The only artists in public eye that I give the time of day are the Chapmans and sometimes Gormley. I also tolerate Emin because I feel sorry for, but that doesn't stop her work being crap.
That said, it's quita a cool looking skull. Nothing more than that though.
..and as far as being a money driven fuck.. So was that cunting theif Picasso.
and I say Good for him. Its about time the artist sterotype broke out of the starving artist Van GoFF... poor as dirt and crazy from church doctrine,heavy metal pigments and wormwoodgenius/mad- renaissanceman... whos work sells for millions, 100 years after their death.
Be the Moby of the art world and take the money and run.
I love this wike quote about him:
LOL.Although Hirst participated physically in the making of early works, he has always needed assistants (Carl Freedman helped with the first vitrines), and now the volume of work produced necessitates a "factory" setup, akin to Andy Warhol's or a Renaissance studio. This has led to questions about authenticity, as was highlighted in 1997, when a spin painting that Hirst said was a "forgery" appeared at sale, although he had previously said that he often had nothing to do with the creation of these pieces.
Hirst said that he only painted five spot paintings himself because, "I couldn't be fucking arsed doing it"; he described his efforts as "shite"—"They're shit compared to ... the best person who ever painted spots for me was Rachel. She's brilliant. Absolutely fucking brilliant. The best spot painting you can have by me is one painted by Rachel." He also describes another painting assistant who was leaving and asked for one of the paintings. Hirst told her to, "'make one of your own.' And she said, 'No, I want one of yours.' But the only difference, between one painted by her and one of mine, is the money.'"[3] By February 1999, two assistants had painted 300 spot paintings.[18]

used to bump into the goldsmiths crowd that he went around with a lot in the early 90s. seemed like a right bunch of twats.Doombrain wrote:i've met the bloke that made that, a few times.
come to think of it - there was a guy who made sculptures that looked like IEDs with cameras on them. he never got famous, producing tasteless crap ahead of his time i guess.

London artists are a bunch of double-barelled, coke-infested cunts, and despite the fact they're all trust fund parasites, the only way to get a drink out of one of them is to stick your finger down their throat.4days wrote:used to bump into the goldsmiths crowd that he went around with a lot in the early 90s. seemed like a right bunch of twats.Doombrain wrote:i've met the bloke that made that, a few times.
