thats by far the best moss has ever looked, but £1800. thats a lot of cash.

Too expensive for me and a bit tasteless too.

They are based on the photos of the Moors murderers Myra Hindley and Iain Brady.
Regarded as the most evil people on earth at the time.

and what you think of kate moss and her boyfriend pete docherty i'll leave up to you.

\

it happened in the sixties.

i think they are very thought provoking but i could not live with them looking at me.

Brilliant idea ;D but yeah Not sure I would want it on the wall

Don't think I could hang this one on my walls. But wouldn't have batted an eyelid at hanging Hindley and Brady

Do like his Sid Vicious though. Incidently Sid would have been 50 years old this week had he lived.

Maybe they are a comment on how the two have been treated by the great british press!!

They have both been villified for drug taking to a ridiculous level as if they were evil......maybe not to the lengths of the moors murderers but.....
as if they were the only celebs who ever take drugs?

A very haunting image..more for a gallery than your front room I think. But none the less, doing what good art should do and create discussion.

How about a Tony & Cherie Blair version? ;D Now I would like that on the wall ;D

Or maybe even a Blair & Bush ;D Tony could be Myra ;D

Found this comment which I thought was quite accurate,

"Controversial artworks have been produced by artists throughout history that really test the standards of decency in our society. Some parts of society lay scorn and criticism on these works, unable or unwilling to appreciate the artist's vision. It's great that in our free society, artists can create any type work that their talent, means and imagination can come up with, whether it offends certain people or not. "

I don't know what anyone else thinks but the images are truly freaky in a way that you can't get them out of your mind the more you see them!!! I wonder what kate and pete think about them? not too sure that I would like me and my other half loking like child killers??

My wife was interested in his Jane Fonda arrest mugshot, but when I found out the price I decided to create my own. I've downloaded the freely available arrest mugshot (only found a smallish one though, if anyone knows were you can find them larger please tell) and I was going to blow it up to 50cm square (for Habitat frame).

I'll apply a course halftone dot in a rich red and get my mate who's got a large format ink jet printer to print it for me (he owes me a
favour) and job done for the cost of a frame.

This is the idea, although this is cropped and hasn't quite got the impact as it's smaller

Whatever you do don't buy it!!!!

A news item in November 2005 featured Nikki Stone, a musician who purchased a painting of "Pogo the Clown" done by infamous killer John Wayne Gacy, who murdered 33 young men and kept the remains of 29 of them beneath his house. According to Stone, once he acquired the painting for $3000, he was hit with a load of bad luck. His dog died, his mother was diagnosed with cancer, and several associates who agreed to store the work experienced their own brand of negative incidents —accidents and fires. "I just want to be rid of it," he said to Laurel J. Stewart for the Boston Herald. In the same article, it was noted that actor Johnny Depp had also once acquired a Gacy painting of the same ilk, but had "developed a pathological fear of clowns and had unloaded the artwork.

My name is Earl!! ;D ;D good karma only!!

Found these other artists on wikipedia...

John Wayne Gacy, Richard Ramirez, and Henry Lee Lucas are a few of the better known American serial killer artists...
. The actual pieces can sell for large sums of money depending on the individual artist, and their notoriety through serial killing.

Serial killer art need not always be taken seriously. In his autobiography "Final Truth", serial killer Donald Gaskins confesses making carbon copies of Disney characters from magazines and selling them through his lawyer just to gain some money.

Fascinating topic....

Yeah, that Bronson is a genuine psycho. If I remember rightly he kidnapped the Deputy Governor of his nick and threatened to kill him unless he tickled his feet. Shouldn't laugh, but... ;D ;D ;D
