Miranda Donovan, by ROLLINS on May 28, 2008 19:00:21 GMT 1, Hi.
Did anyone bother to go to see the Miranda Donovan show at Laz.
If so - WHY?
I sat and watched paint dry that day instead and then brushed the dog.

Miranda Donovan, by iwouldfollow youanywhere on May 28, 2008 19:20:32 GMT 1, *yawn*
how witty. any reason your negative opinion of the show needs a thread of it's own rather than keeping it to yourself?
so what do you like then rollins? are you a banksy.info flavour of the month man? or just incapable of thinking a bit harder about a piece of work?
i don't expect anyone really gives a shite whether you like it or not, plenty do as the show was instantly sold out. I personally like it, especially the large scale work.

Miranda Donovan, by nacional on May 28, 2008 19:38:05 GMT 1, 2 people throwing insults, the second poster insulting the first whilst telling him not to insult.
As Borges said about the Falkland (Malvinas) "Conflict, "It's like two bald men fighting over a comb."

i must have missed the part where i insulted the OP, simply trying to elicit a coherent response if possible.....

I think that is pretty insulting, don't you....

Miranda Donovan, by Heavyconsumer on May 28, 2008 20:09:43 GMT 1, I think Miranda's work is well worth a look and had I been in town, I'd porbably have popped in. I think her painted 3D imagery annd textured surfaces are fantastic. Rollins, the least you could do if you're going to start a thread about disliking some art, is articulate why, rather than simply show disdain/disrespect for the artist. Or perhaps you could have asked others what the appeal of her work was, without the condesending tone. Just my opinion.

Miranda Donovan, by ROLLINS on May 29, 2008 4:16:55 GMT 1, Oh come on!
I just wanted to see what people thought about her.
I'm really not a big fan at all. In fact, I think she's plain awful compared to other female artists like Audrey Kawasaki or Candice Tripp.
I think she has jumped on the end of the "trendy" "urban" art scene.
I did walk past and poke my head in the other day on my way to the "flavour of the month" Outsiders, Wod To Mother and the Selfridges shows. In comparison to those. She doesn't hold a light.
Does it matter what I like. Is that how you judge people?
That's a bit shallow isn't it?.

Miranda Donovan, by Heavyconsumer on May 29, 2008 4:38:34 GMT 1, No Rollins, I don't think anyone's been overly shallow in their judgment really. On your other thread you received plenty of empathy from many of us, but here, you did not simply state that Miranda's art was not to your liking, you seemed to be quite disrespectful in the tone of your post, when it was not necessary and imo it was inappropriate, I have not judged you in any way, simply reacted to your post, as have others. You could have just as easily stated that you don't rate her art, without that unpleasant tone, had you chosen to. In fact it's an alltogether strange way to start a thread imo. It's not as if her work is overly hyped up is it?

Miranda Donovan, by ROLLINS on May 29, 2008 5:38:24 GMT 1, Yes you did and I was greatfull for that.
But - some time ago, there was a thread about MD and there was a lot of friendly banter about her work good and bad.
In good humour I posted this thread, not to upset anyone.
Surely - all these people that we talk about on these sites are open to debate however our tones come over.
Sorry if I upset any followers and supporters of MD's work.
(sort of )
