Glasgow Children's Hospital....one last time, by mcgill14 on Jun 28, 2023 15:54:13 GMT 1, Given that a stranger didn't hand me a package for the auction when I was at Cut & Run today I'm donating my own posters. Seems the right thing to do given the man came to Glasgow...๐

Dear Banksy
Tomorrow at 11am I'll be visiting your incredible Cut & Run exhibition @glasgowgoma . Been a big fan for a very long time and can't wait to see it. The art auction that I'm currently organising for gch_charity is going well with over 270 artists taking part. It's not too late for you to join the gang.....๐ I know you're super protective about your identity, when it comes to sourcing art donations for this final auction I'm not quite as shy. I'm happy to meet up and promise I'll keep the secret..๐คซ

He's only gone and donated another incredible pair. This time they are Blur Converse All Star featuring Think Tank art work after Banksy. He's also gone the extra mile and had them signed by the man himself Damon Albarn . Huge thanks Ed for an unbelievable 2nd donation to this years gch_charity 33rpm art auction @mctears.

Banksy Show โข Cut & Run โข Glasgow , by mcgill14 on Jun 24, 2023 8:33:51 GMT 1, Hi, total hypothetical here...if one is married and their spouse doesn't much care for Banksy whilst the other is a rabid Banksy fan, if the latter spouse says they are going on a "quick trip to visit a friend" whilst buying a Friday to Sunday plane ticket to go see Cut & Run, are we in divorce territory or is it just a party foul? If not hypothetical, asking for a friend... Love it. My other half is not an art fan but she knows who Banksy is. I told her she was going to the final session of the exhibition as it was a must see. She gets an overnight stay in Glasgow so she's happy. Just take your non art loving spouse, the only way to convert them is to let them experience it....๐๐ Alternately Glasgow has amazing shopping.....๐คฃ๐คฃ

Recommended Art Books, by mcgill14 on Jun 23, 2023 15:54:00 GMT 1, Thank you mcgill14 for recommending Bob Mortimer! Pretty perfect book for an easy read by the pool. Just finished Man and Boy by Tony Parsons. Found it much better than the first time I read it around 20 years ago. Much more relatable now that I have kids and an ex-wife! :-) Glad you enjoyed....BUT...did you manage to read it without a Bob Mortimer accent in your head. I certainly didn't....๐๐

Banksy Show โข Cut & Run โข Glasgow , by mcgill14 on Jun 22, 2023 21:24:58 GMT 1, Glasgow City Council are super short sited and are missing the huge benefits to having great street art out there on the street. The amazing team at SWG3 host Yardworks each year which brings incredible artists in to the city to create stunning art work within the SWG3 yard. They also have incredible gable end murals by the likes of Smugone that are allowed to stay. With Banksy choosing Glasgow over any other city the council are not doing the city any favours by painting over everything. I was up in Aberdeen the other week meeting KBR from Bergen to pick up her album cover for this years auction. Now that's a city that fully embraces the street art culture. I spent a happy few hours just wandering the streets and found an incredible array if pieces. The fact the council supports Nuart Aberdeen shows how progressive they are. GLASGOW needs to learn a lesson. Great street art is GREAT for the city. You can see what I found in Aberdeen on my Instagram: grandadsteve61
Interestingly the city Council graffiti removal vans are based in a compound right next to McTears Fine Art auctioneers who host my art auctions for Glasgow Children's Hospital which feature some of the best street artists out there...๐คฃ
Rant over.....๐๐๐๐๐
