I tried to be a street artist but I was crap, so I became a piss artist instead and fcuk me I'm good. My dustbin man applauds my work when he empty's my recycling every fortnight.
I don't like Stik.
I don't like lamp posts.
I'll get my coat.

That 'show me your flat' thread is just the worst thing ever. Show me your s**t, heres mine, isn't my flat great, its cleaner than yours, look at my f**king kaws collection of toys on floating shelves and my 3 thousand pound chair that just happens to be next to my floor to ceiling window with views over the f**king harbour, oooh i'm urban.

I like those posts. I wouldn't post my place but then again people wouldn't be the least bit impressed. If you ever watched the MTV series cribs you know how amazing it can be. Rich person after rich person trying to show each other up in a pointless competition of consumption. But then you had Redman who's place was amazing. Such a shit hole. Best episode ever. |

If you must post an opinion about prices why don't you be transparent and say if you own the print you are pricing, or you want it and what you are basing the price on. Links to sales etc.
It seems like POW is now providing valuations. There must be someone here who has a relationship with POW and can get a monthly valuation guide that we can post and stop all this back and forth on valuations based on hopes and dreams rather than reality.

I can see where MMike is coming from.. for me it two fold, it's the people showing their walls with 8 Nolas or CYW's in a row? It's like "look at me$$$$look at me".....Or from what I see in most of the houses/apartments they are just honest people who've probably saved hard for their house and collection and want to share, Same as the other day the guy doing his renovation/extension, no problem wih it..

It annoyed me that I posted a thread about a piece by War Boutique and it stimulated no interest at all, whereas a print of an elephant resulted in pages and pages of replies! Not because it was my thread, but because WB is an innovative protest artist (the sort of artist that interests me and I thought would interest others on a banksy forum). I know why.
But then my thunder was stolen because comments were on that thread. Bollocks!!
But you get my point. Maybe.

Don't give up. Keep posting quality. Quality will last. No one will remember this thread or that crap elephant print in a month.

But then my thunder was stolen because comments were on that thread. Bollocks!! But you get my point. Maybe. Agreed. War Boutique is so underrated. I had an opportunity to buy an original from him that I really liked. I took to long and it sold. That is one of my bigger regrets when it comes to buying or not buying art. Don't give up. Keep posting quality. Quality will last. No one will remember this thread or that crap elephant print in a month. |

I had missed that thread Coach, just had a look and also read about the meaning behind the piece. Very interesting and clever, cheers for posting it.

MMMike rants about other posts, by Deleted on Feb 15, 2014 0:03:18 GMT 1, And now this has turned into an apologies thread, make one of those too?
Mainly what I'm annoyed by people's inability to take a step back accept a challenge and think.
Why am I buying this print really?
Do I actually love it?
Am I driven by vacuous short term wants, fed by others with an agenda?
Do I want to be a robot horse led to my robot water?
I wish oh I wish that people stopped chasing their tails, woke up and the challenge was to think, choose 'really' choose what we like and appreciate the art form.

I see what you mean about this thread but I also think it helps people to see the art framed and up on a wall which has switched me on to an artist or piece that I hadn't thought of previously. There are many times when I've thought releases were not for me but seeing them framed has changed my mind. But it is a bit peacock strutting for some.

That Otis print thing. I understand those who bought this crap hoping it was a Banksy (good luck with that) wanting to keep the thread going but to the rest of you, just stop. Even if someone posts something really stupid, just let it go. I don't generally like to comment on art being bad because who am I do say? But in this case it is so obviously a badly executed, ugly print that is both a rip off of MBW and the like, and not interesting in the least.
Let's get some originality going here with the art and conversations. I don't care how much it is worth let's just discuss art that you like or don't like and why? To keep it honest comment on work that you like that you don't own and art that you don't like that you do.
