It is undeniably true that every era's rebels become the creators of every later era's masterpieces... <BR/><BR/>I just can't help thinking that this is probably more about promoting Voom HD Networks' products than producing 'art', but then art has also always had to contend with counting the costs of sponsorship and patronage...Brian Sibleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02395103557170474777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28039080.post-1172789523862893312007-03-01T22:52:00.000+00:002007-03-01T22:52:00.000+00:00Which century are you in?.

At the very least we should be grateful that conceptual art fosters debate about art & attempts to makes sense of the times in which we live or have you forgotten how radical the Impressionists were in their time? 100 years on & Art is supposed to remain at a standstill whilst all else advances?

Embrace the new,be tolerant of change which is demanded of us all the time in a social context -why not art?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28039080.post-1172766404695206072007-03-01T16:26:00.000+00:002007-03-01T16:26:00.000+00:00Naughty, naughty, QENNY!Me neither, SILLY BILLY.Naughty, naughty, QENNY!<BR/><BR/>Me neither, SILLY BILLY.Brian Sibleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02395103557170474777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28039080.post-1172764747656799442007-03-01T15:59:00.000+00:002007-03-01T15:59:00.000+00:00I actually laughed out loud when i saw this - and ...I actually laughed out loud when i saw this - and not in a good way. <BR/><BR/>Even Brad Pitt does not make this interesting to me.
