minimalism....

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

And bizarrely enough some 'art critic' has now suggested that a photograph of the burnt-out warehouse should be blown-up and framed and entered in for next years Turner Prize ... :roll:

@ MF - Morning off? Or just decided to do some work? :wink:
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,

I like Damien Hirst's conceptual sculptures, but his abstract painting leave me a little cold. He doesn't seem to be saying anything with them.

As for Jake and Dinos Chapman, I'm sorry to say it but IMO their stuff is better off burnt.
Ahhh now is there's the children's dummies stuff? with extra long appendages. Taken from the Sensations exhibition?

http://www.artcyclopedia.com/history/sensation.html

My particular favs of that one are the Marcus Harvey pice oh and that one by..hhmmmnn think it might have been Marc Quinn...the image of his own head carved in frozen ice.

It was a stunning exhibition that one.
