FIVE FLOORS OF SHIT YET AGAIN

Well I am not quite sure how but they did it. The degree show I love to hate, Goldsmiths Fine Art Degree show was somehow even worse than last year plumbing new depths of artistic bullshit. When I started saying so on the balcony err.. a bit loudly everyone around me looked at me like someone had finally vocalised what they were all thinking. What a complete load of toss. As usual there were two good things, in one room I actually found some good Oil painting which turned out to be the work of a very pretty Korean called Hyun Soo Oh.

"I bet they don't like you here." I said to her.
"The tutors don't like my work at all."
"You went to the wrong college didn't you."
She agreed.
"Before you go make sure you dig one of those stilletos you are wearing into their faces."
"I might get arrested."
"It'll be OK. they will think it is art."


Here I am practsing my "It speaks to me of the true horror of 9/11" posse




How many arse holes? And how many times have I seen blown up close ups of arseholes in fine art shows?



I mean why go to college for three yars to learn how to stack up chairs and then not even fucking stack them properly? What a load of wank.


TV is shit these days



I can see the planes hitting the buildings

THE GOLDEN CALF

Great doco about the Contemporary Art Market on the iPlayer here. I've always been the kid shouting at the naked king when it comes to contemporary art so this news is something I have been waiting for for a long time. The shockwaves will hopefully be reverberating through shit holes like Goldsmiths (Degree show coming soon!) who teach their students to churn out this rubbish.

Feel free to tell me my art is rubbish here

MUTATE BRITAIN

Fuck Tracy Emin. Fuck Damien Hirst. Fuck Goldsmiths Fine Art. If you want real Brit art visit Mutate Britain on Curtain rd. The quality of this sculpture is just spectacular. I remember Mutoid Waste from Kiings Cross squat parties when rave was all one still. Mutate and Survive!

FIVE FLOORS OF SHIT

Went to the opening of Goldsmiths Fine Art degree show and it didn't disappoint. Five floors of utter shite as usual. I must go to more of these. There must have been something good.. Hang on.. erm.. Oh a swing. I liked a swing made of nice wood with brightly coloured ropes holding it. I went round with a friend. We made sure to show appreciation for the huge concrete pillars which hold the building up. What else was good? Oh yeah a couple of cartoons, err.. something with coal and a swirly grey floor. Totally banal crap which says fuck all in general. There were some interesting posters which said something. Banksy style logos but I can't remember any of them now. We both decided that the best two pieces of art on exhibit belonged to a girl with a see through blouse and an improbably decorated purple bra.
