RCA Secret - Anyone get what they wanted?, by paulypaul on Nov 25, 2007 20:56:14 GMT 1, Goffy - I appreciate your view. For me though I thought that art was elitist and high brow and not for me until I went to one exhibition a few years ago. That exhibition was sensation at the Royal Academy and it totally blew my mind and opened my eyes to what contemporary art could do. Hirst changed the landscape of British art almost single handedly and for that I thank him. I know you like Dan Baldwin and I believe that Dan cites him as one of his influences, as do countless other up and coming artists.
Eggs - furking- zactly! Mother and Child Divided blew my tits off when I saw it...
BTW - Dan Baldwin? He's shit...

RCA Secret - Anyone get what they wanted?, by lardy on Nov 26, 2007 11:43:26 GMT 1, Well done to all who got what they wanted.
It was a bloody war of attrition in the que. I got there at 6.30 and it was massive. Riding there and standing around for 4 hours was not a good look.
My first year, didnt get any of the Jon Burgerman cards i wanted. Of the 30 I had wanted I got 2. 137 and 2215. Took a punt on 2, 1514 (nice funny collage) and 103 (pony).
I'll be back next year, but in the que a bit earlier. Most enjoyable. If anyone spotted a bloke in black cycle clothes shivering alot, that was me. Sorry if i didnt chat to you but my jaw had frozen.
Well done pez

RCA Secret - Anyone get what they wanted?, by robinbanks on Nov 26, 2007 11:47:14 GMT 1, This is what I picked up - it wasn't my first choice, in fact it wasn't even in my top 10. I am very pleased with it though, and in my humble opinion it's much more aesthetically pleasing than Mr Hirst's efforts. ;D
It's by Alison Mellor - anyone know anything about her?
What I really wanted were the two little Queen's - anyone know who bagged them and who they were by??

RCA Secret - Anyone get what they wanted?, by robinbanks on Nov 26, 2007 13:56:04 GMT 1, I just realised that the RCA Secret site has revealed all now!
The Queen's (554 & 2238) I was after were by Imogen Welch, and the other piece I wanted (1151) was by a really interesting artist called Michael Stubbs - have to check him out in the future.

RCA Secret - Anyone get what they wanted?, by Young Squire on Nov 30, 2007 16:24:53 GMT 1, Pezlow, I was just reading your posting on the yahoogroup board.
I have your favourite card and whilst I love it, I might be willing to swap it if you have anything equally nice to bring to the table. (hint one of those Hirsts would sweeten the deal!!! ;D ;D)
PM me if your interested.
