Would be smashing to see you down the big smoke CBL. Hope you can make it. Try to give it a bit of a priority booking if possible.

Shell Blood....release date?, by mcnuts on Jul 1, 2007 20:45:32 GMT 1, Ok, so I have seen a lot of people askig about this print, saying they want it and its "hot". To be honest, that talk reminds me of Paris Hilton. What I would be more interested in is why people like it and what it means to them besides being "cool". I guess people could always fall back on the "its just graf" but is there more to it for some of you?

Shell Blood....release date?, by dotdot on Jul 1, 2007 20:54:03 GMT 1, mention - PH and SBFO in the same sentence ?
Quite creative - but not creative at the same time.
I get your message - but the sense of irony is not lost here ...
What does it say to us ? (think exam question ... discuss )
Well a lot more than PH could say.. and probably ever will in terms of having any relevance to the population of the planet. Could i have put it simpler.... perhaps

I think its another strong image like the Lv child has a very clear message, most of us have our ideas what the gulf war was really over. The shell logo being one of the most well known oil producers in the world, i guess the choice makes it easy to run the blood straight off it as pre visualised by the artist, and the reason for the bank notes it a direct link to a country. not rocket science but a simple image with a strong message, the simple ideas are always the best.

i'm with ya there. for me what makes the print is what it is printed on. the juxtapostion is simple, perhaps too simple but at the same time, the image can be read on a number of levels. the link between corporations and war generally. THe link between oil/war/money and profit and all the rest. There are other ideas/levels there too but i am still doing this damn article

personally i don't think this is as strong an image as LV.... . LV really makes you think and consider those less fortunate and the commercial/capitalist word we live in... heck, it even makes you think about what YOU can do to help change the world for the better
sure, the story behind the SBO print is the whole oil/iraq thang but my understanding is that the reason for the print does have real street roots.... it's from a piece Beejoir did at a shell garage (which was miscontrued as a protest against petrol prices!)

although the message is spot on and i love Beejoir's work, am I alone in thinking SBO is just a tad 'obvious' ? that's what i love about LV & Turin Scam: they're clever - they draws you in and makes you think...

Shell Blood....release date?, by corblimeylimey on Jul 2, 2007 11:14:18 GMT 1, I think Shell Blood For Oil is a brilliant piece of art and the concept, printing it on real Iraqi money, doing it for real at a petrol station is all brilliant IMO, but not one I want to buy, I just don't want a large Shell logo in my house.
So that's one less person in the bun fight for the rest of you to worry about.

I'll have you know I have to park my crappy car on the street, strangely enough the Victorians didn't put garages into the terraced houses.
