Re: Is it Art?

Some of Banksy's originals are going up for auction at Bonhams. 10 items are expected to fetch around £300,000 in total...

Re: Is it Art?

Actually I don't want to know..I think it is refreshing not to have an artist being all poncy and precious about their work.

Giant Turd slips moorings, and floats away!!!

Yes you read the title correctly, apparently at an art exhibition in Switzerland American artist Paul McCarthy's latest "master-piece" an inflatable turd the size of a house got blown over 200feet in high winds. And there's me thinking we in Britain had a monopoly on, shall we say controversial art-work, eg: Tracy Emin's classic "unmade bed" or Damien Hurst's pickled animals, it would seem I was wrong.
Anyway the question I wanted to pose, "is this art"?

Re: [Merged] Is it Art?

I replied to frogstampers first post in a new thread but it appears only his post was merged into this existing thread...

Anyway, I said this occurrence is clearly the work of a higher being and is his/her way of saying "Sort your stall out, you numpty".

Re: [Merged] Is it Art?

It would have been more interesting if the artist had slung a basket under it and turned it in to a proper hot air balloon. As it is it's just a useless pile of poop.

What a crap story.

What is really worrying is that it's considered "art"
