Well out of my price range so I never need to worry about separating the art from the Artist. His IG is comedy though, putting people on blast left right and centre.

That's a very valid point! I am amazed at his IG. It reminds me of an 9th grader who is illiterate, hopped up on drugs, reaching puberty and was raised to get whatever he wanted.
But seriously...how do you all read what he writes? It is like a misspelled word, then another misspelled word, followed by a jumbled run on sentence with words that aren't even real, followed by another misspelled word. And apparently it is a shout out to his other friends who cannot read and write.
Then there is the flaunting of his money...cars cars cars...expensive trip...cars cars cars.

While I strongly dislike his character, I do find his work appealing and would like a piece someday.

The question that begs to ask though, is why would you support someone who you admittedly strongly dislike?

I think the greater question is why do you think that all these artists are good people at the end of the day the problem with him is that he's just dumb enough to put it all out there for everyone to see

I donโt see a difference just because itโs an artist and not a business. If anything the artist is more directly effected and have their actions validated by an individuals support or lack there of than a business or corporation would be.

*and NO I'm not saying Retna and Picasso's work are of equal standard, although I certainly wouldn't turn down an original painting or print by either of them just cause they're not who I would want to personally hang out with or know.

I think the greater question is why do you think that all these artists are good people at the end of the day the problem with him is that he's just dumb enough to put it all out there for everyone to see Retna is far from a good artist. He just has good promotion and that's the way it has been in the art dealing world for many decades. He knows who to upset and be violent against and who not to upset in order to not get black balled.
He is a t**t. His instagram is bull shit.
He alledgedly threatened gallery staff when he did this latest tantrum and the gallery has a duty to protect it's staff if they do not want a law suit. The police were called in. I don't know if by the gallery or by the staff and in reality the gallery "should" press charges against Retna for vandalism.
He is out of control and alledgedly threatens people who stop by his studio and take photos of his art on outside walls.
I wonder if Retna is a gun owner ? I wonder if he drives a car ?
On the bright side, Bank Robber, Robin Barton whose gallery seems to have vanished is now involved with the Maddox gallery it seems.
