Extract from Interview magazine:
JON SAVAGE: In a way, itโs an โanti-success handbookโ - the direct opposite of all those self-improvement books. Is that deliberate?
SCOTT KING: Someone else suggested that it could have been called How To Be A Loser In The Art World, which I thought was funny, and there is an element of that, but itโs broader than that too.
I didnโt set out to write it as an โanti-self-helpโ book. Quite the opposite, really. I wrote it as โmy truthโ, I didnโt edit it, I just let it pour outโฆ the manifesto, ultimately, is about embracing โfailureโ, looking for the excitement and potential within that โ you know โ rather than being in a state of constant frustration/fury/misery because you do not have what it is you think you want; it is about embracing what you do have, even if that seems like shit.

With art I often get overcharged at 20% instead of 5% but its relatively straight forward to claim the difference back.

While there, it is worth seeing the Walter Sickert exhibition as well. Quite dark but very very good.

Stik has done a fantastic mural in one of the caves, 'Ochre Man' -
I did try and see whether there were any more of the signed books available, but was advised he only did 24 of them, and they all went in the first day or so.

Some nice pieces on display, the Stik mural is brilliant.
Why 'Ochre Man' I hear you say? It was what used to be mined there apparently.
Apologies I couldn't grab any guides for anybody, but I do like being prepared, and have a spare canary? Nice little fella, certainly in a better mood than when I took him in there.

Not fun.
