Dodie Kazanjian, a contributing editor at Vogue and Mr. Tomkins’s wife, mentioned Mr. Franco’s send-up of Kanye West’s “Bound 2” music video, in which Mr. Franco plays Yeezy to Seth Rogen’s sultry Kim Kardashian.
“That was hysterical,” said Ms. Sherman of the spoof.
“Maybe,” said Ms. Kazanjian, “he was working his way up.”

When asked by Gallerist what she made of Franco's act she simply said, “I can only be flattered. I don’t know that I can say it’s art, but I think it’s weirder that Pace would show them than that he would make them.”

Cindy Sherman, perfectly phrased answer

By now hundreds of young artists have riffed on the "Film Stills." It's almost required in art schools. I've seen painted versions of them, filmed ones, slideshows, a woman dressed as other famous women artists doing them, and a guy who posed his dogs as Sherman in the film stills. It's a lark meant to slip-stream into art history, comment about feminism or art, and bide time until an artist can actually figure out his or her own work. It's one of the most predictable holding patterns in all of art. I always tell students who do Sherman remakes, "Cool. Get them out of your system, then get back to work, and don't show these to anyone. It's just you masturbating and may mean you're not meant to be an artist."

at this point George W. Bush is actually a better artist than James Franco.
Everyone more or less otm re: Franco. This is all first-year art school stuff, and has not just been done before, but has been done before that and before that and before that.

the tiny gap between franco and shia labeouf has closed
labeouf seems like a genuinely confused kid (who happens to probably be an asshole)
franco seems confused, but mostly just cynical and smarmy

So James Franco has a band that have made an album about The Smiths. Andy Rourke plays on it and they've put out a video for a song called This Charming Man that is not a cover version.
