Satellite Owls, by 11 on Jan 25, 2016 17:55:59 GMT 1, They do look great - not to sure I'd be weighing out for a bit of high-end art and then bolt it to the outside of the building.
ABC - it is the little receiver on the end of the pole that picks up the signal - the dish is just designed to concentrate the waves so as long as the 'receiving' part is unobstructed they should still work fine. I cant help thinking to myself the receivers sticking out like that look a bit like selfie sticks

Satellite Owls, by Hairbland on Jan 25, 2016 18:19:21 GMT 1, Taking the opposing view, I don't like these at all. Is that ok to put in a thread these days?
To me it seems like something I'd see at some juried art / craft show. But that's just me, a guy who goes to the galleries in Chelsea or the L.E.S., MOMA et al and juried art / craft shows.
If these were not on dish antennas I don't think there'd be any conversation at all. However, if I had to have a painted dish a Sweet Toof mouth might scare the neighbors.

Satellite Owls, by Deleted on Jan 25, 2016 18:52:08 GMT 1, They probably look great when there is a full moon.
I like them a lot, I also like owls.
Lots of people custom paint satellite dishes etc.
I had an idea once of printing or stencilling football club colors and names on sattelite dishes.
I didn't do it. I don't like football and then theres all getting permission from clubs licensing etc.

Satellite Owls, by Deleted on Jan 25, 2016 23:43:53 GMT 1, Yes it is, satellite dishes are urban architecture and the art is on the dishes plus on her site you can see the dishes fixed on walls.
She is talented has a fine art degree from Central Saint martens and describes herself as,
"An intuitive maker, where material and technique inform how my work will end up taking form. "
She works in concrete and stone too and other materials and could well be an artist to watch for the future.

These could easily be painted on shells or rocks. FYI the artist graduated in 2015 with a BFA (to clear up a bit of your misinformation). I put the onus on Atom Gallery for posting these here, and then suggesting a literal translation.

And what is called "urban art" today oftentimes painted legally comissioned using big machines etc is nothing more than murals and not urban art.
ย A satellite dish is in the urban environment is it not?

None of us have to like everything and of course have an opinion but more and more threads (recently) seem to descend into outright p**s-taking. Pretty disrespectful imo.
More positivity people?!

I'm a bit on the fence - caught between interesting with potential and a bit twee. Its not about to set the world on fire but there's a lot worse out there.

Yes I agree...it's not about having to like it but let's be constructive (as some people are!)
It's not my taste personally (and I also love owls  but can appreciate the commitment and achievement by a young artist.
Maybe I woke up grumpy ha ha

It's a generation/internet thing in which diplomacy/morals ( to a certain degree) no longer seem to exist. I was discussing something similar the other day. An opinion is easy to express behind a screen without any thought for "real persons feelings", I'm not sure how many would express the same views out loud if face to face with the person.
I'm not directing this at the above thread comments (using diplomacy  but just voicing general thoughts on tinterweb in general.

Satellite Owls, by Dr Plip on Jan 26, 2016 11:00:58 GMT 1, I've often wondered what criteria has to be met for a piece of art to be considered "Urban". But then I don't get out much and I'm very lonely. But anyway, I think it's a very flexible definition. If you take it to mean something life "In or of a town or city", then a satellite dish certainly meets that criteria. Probably more so than paper, which as we all know belongs in the forest. Where the owls live. But some live in barns.
Anyway, could you also claim a piece of art to be "Urban" if you painted it while you were in a city?
What about if you painted a picture of a grimy city street, while in the comfort of your Cotswold studio. That "Urban"?
Should we consider embracing the term "Suburban" art?
So many questions.

Satellite Owls, by Deleted on Jan 26, 2016 11:42:19 GMT 1, It could be that something hand painted is so shocking to "fans" of urban art who are beginning to sound like their parents. It's like a space invader thing where if this artist continues to paint owl faces on satellite dishes and does enough of them all over the place, gets good prmotion , produces a ltd edition print or mini satellite dish. The flippers take over and then oh yes this is urban it's great innit.
Whats urban whats not urban, to me urban art is a load of old bull anyway. It's not graffiti, it's not dangerous or illegal, it's just pretty murals, propaganda and flipping. With lots of online galleries springing up, bloggers and floggers working together.
Mr Brainwash is as far from urban art as one can get, yes he puts stuff on walls done by assistants and rips off other peoples photos of celebrities has no artistic vision or talent apart from self promotion and flogging stuff to flippers but he gets his stuff on walls so it must be "urban"
Regarding this artist and her website it shows the variety of her work and mediums. Her metal and wax sculpture is definately urban and her other art and drawings do show original thought.
If she paints some stuff on a wall then it's "urban" but these days uran art is not on the outside pushing agisnt the system, it is the system pushing out competition.
Urban art is flippable thats for sure and stencils made from stock photos with paint splattered on top or parodies of Disney and cartoon figures very appealing to some buyers.

For starters google "Urban Art" and read up a bit. Note I understand that "Urban Art" shouldn't need to be "looked up", much like Groucho wouldn't want to be a member of any club that would accept him. These could easily be painted on shells or rocks. FYI the artist graduated in 2015 with a BFA (to clear up a bit of your misinformation).

Satellite Owls, by chrisell66 on Jan 26, 2016 12:47:42 GMT 1, It's a fine line to tread with comments/criticism - and yep the modern keyboard warrior hiding behind a screen will become more and more common. But someone has to voice a contrary opinion - but there are ways of doing it - or sometimes just going its **** privately and move on because its not within our tastes - if you dislike a genre of anything you'll always hate it.
I still think the whole urban label is just a convenient label these days - here is slowly morphing into a general contemporary art forum which isn't a bad thing. Artists evolve - our own tastes evolve - and like punk (or most movements) true "urban" ran out of things to say a while ago (at least from an art view) - but it influences what comes next. Equally after its finished eating itself it will re emerge.
