Saw this on Thursday, Michael Landy (pictured) Saints Alive at The National Gallery. As one of the artists in residence this is his response to the Galleries collection of paintings depicting sainthood. The machines are very reminiscent of old fairground or seaside pier type contraptions that clang, bang and clunk in juddering movements replaying actions like Saints pulling their own teeth out, smashing rocks against their chest or prodding the sides of Jesus to test his piercings like Thomas. Unfortunately a lot of the contraptions were not working but the ones that did had a great irreverent joy about them. They did not really move me to go and experience the source material anew but a lot of that may be down to fatigue. I borrowed a wheelchair to push the Mrs around and it was so heavy and old fashioned I felt at times like an extension of the exhibition wheezing like a pneumatic man, stooping to push the old charabang, which must must have been as heavy as the other half. She is only little but I haven't pushed a chair in years. Big respect for those that have to live their lives in one.
:cool: Was that main one behind him called "He who casts the first stone"?

Jerome is the Saint who kicked off the whole idea of penitents and hermits and is often depicted beating his chest with a rock whilst staring at a crucifix.
Here is Landy's Collage

These are a couple of my efforts, both pastels. Been stuffed in the shed so they've been a bit bent out of shape. Tommy was never finished but you kinds see where I was going with it ;D

George Bellows.
Look at his treatment of the audience, how they look mildly grotesque. Amazing, IMO.

Im not an art mad dude, I just get a list from an artist mate of whats on offer each week in Australia in my emails so I show you guys the ones I like from the list.
That's cool it's been interesting seeing them. If art instils any kind of reaction in you then it has done it's job. The painting above actually makes me want to throw lime in my eyes. It's the visual equivalent to wearing a shirt and tie on the beach with a parasol up your arse.Quote:

I really like this Aboriginal art piece, it reminds me of the cracked clay beds under the swamps that dry out in summer and turtles are found dug in deep down as a food and water source.

This stuff annoys me a touch. Each to their own, but I find this a sheer mockery aimed at the elite art set who'll mull over over some made up tripe and waffle on about the artists past and his reflection on nearly going cookoo or some bullshit as is all reflected in the price and dopey name of the item.
A favourite Canadian artist of mine died today named Alex Colville.

Here is my Friend the Tattoo artist Jerry, from Atlantic Coast Tattoo, free handing a Koi Carp tattoo a couple of days ago. No Stencil, No Carbon outline or pen guide, just Jerry ,a Tattoo Gun, an old an trusting client (he is doing his bodysuit) and a big pair of Cojones ;D
He is a really talented guy who did not have the advantage of an apprenticeship, totally 100% self taught who built his business with hard work,practice, dedication and application. (this is why JuliusRain calling his work cheap and nasty pissed me off)

Wrong colour for my art mate. It's up in Trafalgar Square right now. A great big Gallic cock right in the heart of London. You've got to love it.Quote:
