Chet Childress was fartin out a bunch of ‘art’ at one point, made me think I can draw at that time. Found out I can.
yea, those stupid fucking chicken can things were like his version of those god awful faces markovich draws on everything.
I understand branding or having a "thing", but I dont understand how anyone can be so self unaware that they think shitty ideas like those are worth tying themselves to. It's astonishing.
I’ll give him an inch here. The mattress thing: it’s graffiti and “having a thing” is like 99% of the point, no? Plus, with his whole hobo schtick, there’s even more of a synapse there. Bozo Texino was hopping trains and scratching together some New Deal era govt table scraps, Luda’s out there couch surfing on some Nike money. Is it ground breaking, no, but at least the signal he’s sending out there is ~”get out of the house and get into some shit”.
Maybe that was more than an inch.
Stefan Janoski on the other hand… He should absolutely keep up trying his hand at those bronze sculptures. But he should definitely stop showing them to anyone for at least another 10 years or so.
