We have a new website!, by St. Art Gallery on Jun 1, 2016 7:58:51 GMT 1, Thanks for your reply.
The words "new website" is a direct link to our website. Thought this would be clear on the forum.
We ship international and different payment options are available so no worries about us being based in The Netherlands.
We've also been at Moniker twice so you might already know us.
All the best.
Geoffry

Some of his remarks may raise eyebrows, but on the other hand some of his other remarks are totally opposite. I also know that press sometimes tend to lead an interview in a certain direction and give their own interpretation. Please don't understand me wrong, I'm not saying that press is wrong, but I don't know what was said or wasn't said so I have chosen not to take sides.
For me it's about the art and I let his art speak for it's self.
All the best,
Geoffry

It's a little surprising that you would sell his work without finding out what he has said, especially given that his work is so directly linked to his own views. He has repeated his opinions on many occasions, so this isn't a case of a journalist misleading anyone.

He has repeated his opinions on many occasions, so this isn't a case of a journalist misleading anyone. "With all due respect" is one of my favourite expressions in the English language. The modifiers are pivotal, yet at first glance superfluous.
From experience, "I have chosen not to take sides" is often used euphemistically.
In many cases it serves as a substitute for more wordy explanations like, "It's convenient for me to look the other way, because it means not having to fully address an issue which would otherwise lead to cognitive dissonance and feelings of general malaise".

You then go on to say "some of his remarks may raise eyebrows" and then you you almost go as far as to suggest that his words are twisted by the press but end by saying "I don't know what was said or wasn't said". Eyebrow raising in my household is usually reserved for trivial matters such as Aunty Dot's dancing when she's had one too many sherries. Kraft's comments raise more than my eyebrows.
Clearly you know what his views are and perhaps you endorse his freedom of expression or agree with his views by saying you let the art speak for itself - however, it all seems a bit too defensive. If you weren't making money out of him perhaps you might have a different perspective, perhaps not. It is your prerogative, but hard to tell where you stand and I wouldn't want to assume.

We have a new website!, by St. Art Gallery on Jun 1, 2016 21:32:59 GMT 1, My point of view is that in his art he's clearly poking fun at certain topics, for example the Hitler Teapot, Ahmadinejad Teapot and Kim Jong Ill Teapot. I see no glorifying at all in these items, but perhaps someone else is. Everyone is entitled to his/hers point of view.
Actually I sold quite some of his art works to normal German people at art fairs who like the statements he makes with his art works and who interpret them as statements against nazi's, war, dictators etc.
On topic again, I started this thread to announce that our new website has been launched with a nice discount and we have a lot of other artists besides Charles Krafft.
