I am actually living my dream. I work 12 hour days so I only actually work 7 of 14 days. I have so much free time, plus vacation time, plus an extra week off every 12 weeks. And I make good money doing it, so I can actually DO stuff with my free time. Best of both worlds.

lmao, my boy is building the new whitney (turner constr/renzo piano) stop acting like you someone special bro

we know you suck, 'art tour' you paid for that huh (or atleast someone in your 'group'), classic let me guess you paid for a graffiti tour through bushwick also so you can claim you're street now and get all huffy puffy and want to talk art on the internet

how did i miss the point of anonymous banksy stand? explain to me i really want to hear your expert opinion, private tour met guy

because i 'tie my argument' to hirst and you're assimilating my opinion to value? then you go on saying I'm giving a lecture about something I don't know about? re-read my first 2 posts, explain to me where I said I'm giving a lecture

classic fuckboy status here, come on bro let's 'get into it' over art i hope you get red in the face when you type the next response.

i own and have been around more art then you will ever see in your life


Tour was invite only Didn't pay anything. Was nice to walk around having the entire thing to ourselves with just the curator.

Oh, so you know a contractor building the Whitney? Wow. A good friend builds all of Bulgari's properties; doesn't make me an expert on jewelry.

If I have to explain it to you then you really did miss the point with Banksy (and as jack outlined, his concepts really aren't that difficult to grasp) so I'm not going to waste my time trying to correct your bullshit.

And read your posts again - you were the one that brought up value of Hirst works being worth more than Banksy. As I pointed out you suck at this because no single artist's works has lost more value over the last few years. You quite literally could have picked any other artist to make a better argument but you managed to pick him. Well done.

I didn't see it's what's needed, I said it's a yardstick. Given education is all about progressive learning which is assessed and tested, if there's any hard and fast way of proving your knowledge of art it's showing your grades. I don't see how that's any more absurd than saying that buying art is a measure of knowing anything about it, given probably 90% of art is sold just to look nice on a wall.


Anyway, as I said, the only true way to judge someone's knowledge and taste is by hearing what they've got to say. EarnYourKeep is chatting nonsense, but that doesn't make it valid to just override him by whipping out your collector cock. The whole point of public art galleries is that art should be available to everyone, not just the wealthy.


Again I think you've missed the point of what I'm saying; It's not about defining some qualitative measure of knowledge of art. It's simply that every person I know who have spent their hard earned (not trust fund or new found bling wealth) on art knows more about art in general than the average person. Why? because they have more than a passing interest in art that and that they are willing to search out and purchase it. Buying Art doesn't automatically give you some inherent qualification by any means, but it does show an interest beyond the academic nature of art.

I never actually ever said anything me collecting or me owning any art - I merely made the point above - so I don't see how it's got anything to do with whipping a collecting cock out. Art, especially major pieces, should be public but then there's nothing wrong with private ownership either.

New York interests me but also scares the hell out of me. I've heard of rats in the apartments and I'm also pretty introverted; people exhuast me. I'm also not dominant nor overbearing at all.

No I haven't, you're just backing away from the implications of your own statement.

How is an interest in the academic nature of art not an interest in art? And how is that somehow just a 'passing interest' ?

you throw around the word expert in your head never once did i state or take a position on the translation of art and dollar value. i expressed my opinion on the artist banksy, but i can see my opinion strikes a very clear nerve in your heart, to me that just screams for attention probably something you've never received as a child I feel sorry for you but if it makes you feel better I'll play a long just to keep you going

In your mind i said an artist who simply stencils his work, so you attack me about being unaware of his 'pencils' and 'sculptures', to which I question why would I consider a london phone booth hack job the top of his revered work when in my opinion hirst's piece netted 1.8 to me that's something worth mentioning in terms of 'revered' and original at that. But I guess you want to one me up - I can see the "AH HA!" bubble pop over your head with every statement you make

Frankly I don't care much about your opinion, it's really fun baiting you into these long discussions where you smash your keyboard into a witty response to PROVE TO ME you are smarter than me. i just think you're dumb that's all
