Goldie's portrait of the Queen, by 11 on May 29, 2012 23:36:19 GMT 1, As soon as I saw the POW newsletter the first thing I could think of was to check out this thread.....seems to be lacking those big opinions of yesterday - where have you all gone I was at least hoping to see at least one person defend their position - oh fuk it - perhaps the queen is alright after all.......

POWs pisstake cant be taken as support of the Queen so it wouldn't cause people to come back on here to further discuss Goldies adoring tribute.

Out of interest have you ever looked at a political cartoon and understood they're caricutures and may question the people in them?

Goldie's portrait of the Queen, by Deleted on May 30, 2012 2:58:24 GMT 1, Goldie can just do so much better, this is a boring, repetitive theme and piece of art. I'm looking forward to his next and will soon forget about this.

Caricatures or not, piss take or tribute - I thought the underlying issue was that this was another artist using the royal family and jumping on the jubilee bandwagon to make a quick buck. It doesn't matter if you slate them or worship them and to be honest I don't care but the strength of some opinions expressed on this thread seemed to be way over the top and have suddenly been muted.
So what your saying now is that the goldie piece would have been acceptable If he had put a pin through her nose or a swatika on her cheek but as a straight portrait he is just milking a current event....

Goldie's portrait of the Queen, by Deleted on May 30, 2012 7:56:33 GMT 1, My only point is in doing an image of something so dull at least try to make it interesting, caricatures etc at least tell a story that may do that, that's why the comparison you were hoping for probably hasn't happened, as the pieces hardly seem connected in content (other than on a completely basic level).

Not the dull, conformist type art we've seen from Goldie and others. There's jumping on the bandwagon for self promotional purposes, and there's social commentary... 2 different things.

Goldie's portrait of the Queen, by yeah on May 30, 2012 10:12:12 GMT 1, The piece has been produced from a single piece of sustainable birch which was burned and sanded down to create a 3D-effect Union Flag with an image of the young Queen in the centre, which was then built up with many layers of paint.
art is fascinating.
is this piece good (in some peoples' eyes) because of the above? I.e. because of how it was produced?
if so, then I think that's a very poor view of what art is. The history of (the) art, and the production of art is a fascinating subject, with no right or wrong answers per se, but I still think the finished product has to stand up in its own right, without knowing any of the background, or even who the artist is.
IMO this does not pass that test. there is nothing in the finished product that I find appealing, interesting, fascinating, thought provoking or beautiful.

Goldie's portrait of the Queen, by ABC on May 30, 2012 14:14:42 GMT 1, What's funny about the latest Banksy crap is that some pulled the trigger thinking it was a print, then admitted that they had not even looked at the image, says it all. How many people have slagged Goldie's work because it's "not what a street artist should be producing" how many people are saying the same about Mr B's latest Union flag (oh how original)? A street artist is just an artist, it doesn't mean they have to be an anarchist, that's just bollox. Yes they might get in the shit more with the law but that's about it. I've met the queen a few times, as I have members of the R family, they are good for the country (IMO) Anyone who doesn't feel they portray a positive image are very sad (IMO) Far too many bloody moaners in this country, drip, drip bloody drip. Rant over.
