Your latest Art Purchase?, by Heavyconsumer on May 24, 2009 23:01:32 GMT 1, I have to say that I think Starkitty is being very childish and oversensitive about this.
I saw the piece in question earlier and personally thought it was pretty horrific and hard-hitting. But only after taking a good long look at it, and I have to say I found it fascinating and quite compelling in an uncomfortable way and I'm guessing that is what Supine had in mind when he pasted a child's face onto a nude adolescent torso.
Slidingonthewalls simply questioned some controversial subject matter and I'd like to see more of that in here. What is the art, what response does it elicit from each of us and why etc? This is an art forum after all!
There's no need to throw your toys out the pram just because we don't all react the desired way to a given piece of art - I don't understand that - I mean you still love the piece don't you? Art is subjective and should stimulate discussion, no? I'd like Starkitty to keep posting her art here as much as the rest of you, but not if it means we're not allowed to react to it sincerely.

Wiz, that is a special little piece, I don't think I've had the pleasure of seeing it before...
Ronhill, that piece is destined to become one of the greats of our time, you're a very lucky man!!!

Your latest Art Purchase?, by Photoxtc on May 25, 2009 0:59:48 GMT 1, don't mean to break up the Supine love fest... but a NYC artist just the same, so I don't feel too bad
But here's my little bast I finally framed up, bought a $13.00 box frame and I float mounted the piece in there... not bad for a ready made frame, if I don't say so myself...

Thanks Wiz. A little different for Supine. It's very raw and dirty. Here's a close-up...
He's got a solo show in November so I think he'll be focusing on that right now.

Why do I have the feeling that somethingยดs sticking under here? ;D Youยดll be my witness then Wiz, 2 months without purchasing a piece and hlarmys place is mine, including his wonderful art.
I thought at the time that 2 months sounded optimistic!! Think we need to set up an AA meeting (art-collectors anonomous!!!)
Lovely piece as ever BTW!

.........and this is the other one I really liked. I think this and Ronhill's are the only 2 Supines I've seen that I thought were the absolute business. Although of the work I've seen, this is probably my favourite piece (based on jpegs of course). I can certainly see the appeal of Judith's work, even though most of it isn't for me.
