I have no idea whether the extent of his injuries means he will never paint again but I am sure his friends and family have not given up hope. Either way I think selling his art with direct reference to his current plight is appalling. Unless all proceeds are to be donated to him and his family.

Just plain WRONG...., by caddyshack on Nov 3, 2011 11:15:05 GMT 1, I have bought stuff from Brandler Gallery in the past and spoke to John Brandler himself and he seemed like a nice guy. Must admit though, the stuff he has put on the eBay listing is bang out of order. Robbo's stuff will sell it self for what it is and doesn't need any dramatisation. If I had seen that, i probably wouldn't have dealt with him. Certainly won't be buying from him again.

Just plain WRONG...., by rperry on Nov 3, 2011 11:31:36 GMT 1, I agree it's tone is in poor taste in judgement.
I got the feeling it was less to raise pity of his medical condition and more trying to hype up the Banksy connection and the fact they made a docu about him.
I call it an "EXIT" strategy or the "Brainwash" effect....

You guessed wrong, Brandler did pen those words, he also told me about it, he is a rogue imo. but hey business is business as he says.

I had no problem with dealing with him, but I s'pose he's traded off any compassion for Robbo's condition with his purely commercial endeavours towards the ebay punters.
Can't see me buying anything in the future either unless............

They have quite a lot of his stuff on their website so good time to show them that people do neither appreciate or like what they are doing.

To be fair that is also a decent reaction as may be they did not think about it when they wrote it.

To be fair I have now replied to his mail in a similarly polite manner.
Thx johnny

Just plain WRONG...., by speebe on Nov 5, 2011 11:05:45 GMT 1, Nice one Johnny...
I couldn't believe the content of the ebay listing which is why I raised my concerns on here.
It was written in such bad taste, a really callous and hurtful act showing such disregard for Robbo, his family and friends.
Glad it's been amended but I was hoping some of his profit (if not all the profit) was going to Robbo's family but no it doesn't look like it will...

There is not a shortage of prints or galleries to get them from so rather my money went else where. From his reply to me no chance of him donating anything in my view
Sad man.

But back to the true thread I've always thought Brandler Gallery to be overpriced anyway. Definately not a good move for him with all the feeling on this forum though.

Just plain WRONG...., by johnnyh on Nov 5, 2011 12:02:38 GMT 1, This is the response from John Brandler
John ,
How nice to hear from you.
As a supporter of Robbo , I presume you went / phoned ย in to the exhibition held at the Pure Evil Gallery that was held to raise funds for Robbo and purchased some. ย He is out of the Coma , but still needs support both financialy & from the art trade to keep his name out there ย so when he starts painting again there will be some income for him.
Of course, from the moral point of view I agree , artists should be given a free life because they create wonderful art that enbhances the community they live in and after they die for hundreds of years people get pleasure from what they have created. ย I deal in lots of artists including Gainsborough , Reynolds Constable etc - they are still giving pleasure.
So , if you are on " Art Boards" how many of those boards have purchased anything to support Robbo? ย I think he's a really good artist that needs suport and the only way to do that is keep his name in front of the public- or should Pure Evil Gallery keep all his work in a cupboard where it won't get seen?
Or to put it simply ? Have YOU ย put your money where your mouth is ? ย
