Show Yer Art 2! THE SEQUEL!
 
K. This thread is a thinly veiled attempt at showing you my art. I don't really care about your art.
Spoiler:
Or do I?
Spoiler:
I do.
Spoiler:
No, not really.
Spoiler:
Maybe, though.

This one is in a show that is up currently. The show, while in a prestigious place for contemporary art in San Antonio is awful, sadly. The curator is a hack. They did give me a large part of the wall to plaster with these, though. Kinda nice of them.

Are those really nails in the corners holding it up?
<---stifling a giggle

I told them they should wallpaper-glue them. They didn't listen. They did spend a hellova long time nailing 21 of those on a wall, four nails each.

I don't get the picture, but then I'm hardly well-versed in the intricacies of American history. I believe it's Abe Lincoln? And he's wearing the familiar hat, and the mask from the burglar from McDonalds. Intruiging. No really, tell me.

Jayel 04-12-2006 01:51 AM

Woo it's fantastic. I can't quite interpret it either. Does it have anything to do with abolition of slavery and its repercussions? Anyway, it's bold and expressive and conjures up all kinds of nice images in my head. And that's all that matters.

Here's something of mine from last year, when I was obsessed with cats reaching out to stuff.

Your cat effectively nullifies Abe Lincoln.

jjacob 04-12-2006 08:48 AM

Awesome stuff guys! :) I'll try to find and scan a few pics of my graffiti stuff, though that's going to be hard (since they're buried somewhere and I don't have a scanner yet). Ah well, I'll bump the thread when the time comes ;)

This is a piece I like to call "Commie Abe, the brain burglar".

Fascinating

I laughed so hard reading that statement. I imagined a whole series of similar pictures with literally cats reaching out to stuff....Ah so funny.

RLacey 04-12-2006 03:27 PM

Both pieces of art here are the kind of things I'd quite happily put on my wall. Nice work, guys.

My cat could never nullify your Lincoln. Even if I named her Booth.

Are you a fan of Louis Wain?

I have no idea who that is, so yes.

And so I come to you again with another one of my '2 voor 12' animation for Dutch television. It's about greek mythology and you can download this 40 second little epic here:

Looks cool! For whom are you making it exactly, and it it related with 3 voor 12 (VPRO)? :)

Starflux 04-14-2006 04:31 AM

No, it's for the long-running Dutch gameshow 2 voor 12. It's quite famous and one of the more erudite shows around. 3 voor 12 is something else completely :) And I'm making it for... well, for the producers of the show, I guess. And my study Animation. And $$$!

NcroManiac 04-14-2006 05:16 AM

Kingzjester: Interesting. Wery post-modern. Reminds me of the old anarchists and the Pyramid of Capitalism .

Jayel: Lovely pictures! You do know how to capture the spirit of a cat on canvas. Makes me whant to draw more pictures of my own cat.

Flux: Amazing! Wery monty python esque but still in your own style.
Can't wait for the third one!
