Physical Criticism (beautiful)

Wednesday, January 16, 2008

Mr. Young's Miami piece was vandalised over the weekend, succinctly creating a new work. I heart it (even better than Damien Hirst's black sheep).

It couldn't be any worse than the original... Sorry Ed but it was more like an advertising slogan than an artwork...

no, ed is so brilliant. you guys just don't understand him. like all his work, this is a powerful piece of art

Shit4brains: As your primitive sobriquet suggests you obviously have no concept of what art is. This "work" is more likehas more in common with a bumper sticker than anything as lofty as art or Hirst's black sheep. Ed might do better coining slogans for chicken than parading around calling himself an artist. He would probably make more money too.

Anonymous: I think you miss the point, the black sheep that you refer to as a "lofty piece of art" was not 'Hirst's" (perhaps this was my writing being unclear), but, in fact, a product of vandalism no doubt in a similar vein to this one.

Mr. Hirst took said vandalist, Mark Bridger, to court and he was prosecuted with a two year probation.

At least ed has a sense of humour.

What's with the deleted comments? Protecting your friends? Is Ed that pathetic he needs a net nanny to guard his interests and his fragile tissue paper ego? The last time someone wrote about him in a head-on confrontational way he rather sadly devoted his whole purile art throb diary to re-inflating his chest. The guy is a loser. This website is fucking sad to be protecting him. It's things like this that show what this website really is - a small, little forum for cape students, both current and recently graduated. That's all.

Dear anonymous,
The comment was removed purely because it made mention of Ed's phone number. I think that is an excessive invasion of Ed's (or anyone's)privacy. Now fuck off.
Kind Regards,
Robert

If all these commentators are so desperate to hear less about Ed, they could start by shutting up. That would really help.

just so you know - two comments were deleted - not only the one with Ed's number in - and I wrote the other one. i did not disclose any private information, but made a snide comment about his ex girlfriend, which , thinking about it know, was maybe infantile and puerile, but i dont think warranted censorship. just a note of concern, that once you open that door its hard to close it.

Infantile anonymous.Why are you opening the ex girlfriend door? I'm guessing Ed helped your ex girlfriend with her first orgasm.
