to be even more repulsive than Damien Hurst....

Then came Daniel Edwards.

[no name no slogan]

4. That's hot

[realisticphish]

5. anyone else think this WASN'T originally a sculpture?

as in, he was making this, and his wife walked into the studio. "What the hell is that?"
"uh... a sculpture. Yeah, that's it! A sculpture."

[wildhorses]

7. yeah, thats the ticket

10. Anyone else think this artist is the worst kind of publicity whore?

Isn't this the same guy that did the "Britney giving birth on a bearskin rug" sculpture, as well as the "Suri's first poop" sculpture?

[wildhorses]

11. yes, i think it is

art...subjective

[SteppingRazor]

13. Oh, I'm not commenting on the art itself.

Sure, you can have your own opinion of the art, and most people's are just as valid as everyone else's.

I'm commenting specifically on the artist. I don't think he gives a rat's ass about art. I think he likes seeing his name in headlines.

[wildhorses]

12. i think he makes a valid statement

on a publicity whore:shrug:

[SteppingRazor]

14. That's a perfectly valid take on it, certainly.

Skewering people like Britney and Paris is the intent, and the name in lights is just a symptom. Certainly, that's a distinct possibility.
