I used to hate him but he's grown on me

[ibilly99]

He is a necessary antidote to the bankruptcy of talent,craft and ideas that pass for much of contemporary art. This year's Turner Prize was arguably the worst ever- the evolution of modern art particuarly that championed by the Serotist tendency has come to a fullstop.(any body for rope !) The art schools are largely churning out untutored identikit morons that if anything reflect the spiritual vacuum at the heart of our consumerist society.The only worse movement is that of the Stuckists who define themselves in opposition to this !

Or something like that anyway! Ouch I'm middle aged and grumpy.

He has certainly embraced his media career with relish.

Did you notice you never saw him and Sister Wendy on screen together? Coincidence? Was that really Brian behind the wimple?

[ibilly99]

She/he went to see the latest Turner Prize - whilst praising the energy and enthusiasm of the artists she obviously wasn't impressed !

Love the man. Don't necessarily agree with him, or for that matter read him that much, but just knowing he's around makes the world a better place. Fact.

Affected, opinionated, poncey as hell and all the better for it.

A national treasure.

And that's pronounced Ssyewell by the way.

[ibilly99]

And he didn't start the Momart fire - probably !

[mockney piers]

isn't worst Turner Prize sort of tautologous?

OHMYGOD!

This is the best Christmas gift I had this year. I can't believe I only just found it.

Thank you so very much.
