He's a Californicated Briton of moderate artistic talent.

Hockey, however, is a marginal sport that, twenty years from now, will be no more important in the sports landscape than lacrosse. Go Saskatchewan Rump Riders, International Lacrosse League champions of 2027 (or was it hockey)!!

It may seem weak Northcott but he has addressed the most important trend in art today.

Californification fo the young British artists has led to inflation in derivative, unoriginal art to such an extent that gallery owners are pressing stock themselves and changing the fundamental way art is viewed and purchased.

What does one do with a 15 foot long dissected shark? Put in on your mantle? The nearest Art comes to failure is the simple allure of being a museum and gallery driven medium that is seperated from the masses and speaks of an elitism. It has happened a few times in the past couple of centuries and it si usually the predecessor to art making a ginat populist swing.

I, personally, look forward to a backlash of epic proportions (hopefully in my lifetime) similar to impressionist or fauvist changes of sensibitlity.

Oh, and Hockney is an ass.

Typical off-topic, passive-aggressive bullshit again, eh? At least it was short for once.

Apparently you're labouring under the misconception that this is NTL. As I did with Atticus, I'll tell you this once: If you really want round 2 over here, you'll get it. Up to this point I've ignored your trolling and your thread-crapping.

If you wish to lie through your teeth and claim that the first post in this thread wasn't written to be intentionally inflammatory, run with it. I don't think anybody will be overly surprised.

Hockney!=Hockey. It was meant in fun. One of us is indeed laboring under the misconception that this is NTL, and taking things way too seriously, but it ain't me.

As for your "explanation", I've been at Kay's for years, and know how things work, thank you very much.

You're welcome. I couldn't very well leave you floundering about. :D
