Both have a specific schtick/niche in their field, have spawned many imitators...

-- Konal Doddz (stevem7...), September 22nd, 2006. (blueski) (later)

Even at his best, and he's pretty much admitted this in the past, Brooker is just a plagiarist of Paul Rose's stuff.

who he?

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:36 (nineteen years ago)

Originality has nothing to do with anything!

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:36 (nineteen years ago)

One of them used to be good.

probably _are_ most of their imitators...

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:38 (nineteen years ago)

Both are bores...if I wanted to hear about how society is in DECLINE OH BOLLOCKS I'd go and do a masters.

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:40 (nineteen years ago)

oh god perish the thought!

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:43 (nineteen years ago)

I only really like Brooker when he's just enthusing about shows he really likes. Likewise perhaps Banksy should just do 'happy' paintings.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:46 (nineteen years ago)

Banksy is a silly name anyway. He should revert to his given name. Nothing wrong with Norman Evans.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:48 (nineteen years ago)

oooohh!!

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:50 (nineteen years ago)

"evansy" would have been far better.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:50 (nineteen years ago)

I think that's been copyrighted by Chris Evans, 'cos you know, he likes his golf, on the green with Tarby, Brucie and Lynchie, o-ho!

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:55 (nineteen years ago)

Norman!

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:55 (nineteen years ago)

forsythie, surely?

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:55 (nineteen years ago)

normsie, then. hahahahahaha

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Friday, 22 September 2006 09:56 (nineteen years ago)

Normski?

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 22 September 2006 10:02 (nineteen years ago)

Used to go out with Janet Street-Portery.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Monday, 25 September 2006 11:23 (nineteen years ago)

tony elliotski?

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Monday, 25 September 2006 11:23 (nineteen years ago)

For a bit. Then it was Tony Jamesy Out Of Sigue Sigue Sputniky.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Monday, 25 September 2006 11:24 (nineteen years ago)

I went to see the Kandinsky exhibitaion at Tate Modern on Saturday. That was wicked.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:53 (nineteen years ago)

Much better, and much more genuinely wicked, than boring old Banksyy, I must say.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:54 (nineteen years ago)

omg i went to tate modern yesterday!

i don't like art though, and was glad to be out of it.

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:54 (nineteen years ago)

didn't go to kandinsky, not made of money.

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:54 (nineteen years ago)

You'd get in for much cheaper if you registered as a trusteey!

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:56 (nineteen years ago)

i'm joking, of course; but i hadn't been to the re-hang n.e.way so wanted to do that.

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:57 (nineteen years ago)

Henry did you go in the minimalism bit on the top floor? I fucking LOVE those cube mirrors. I love Tate Modern. I know piss-all about art but I love Kandinsky and I love sculptures that toy with perception and texture. My girlfriend's got a year to go of an art history degree.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:58 (nineteen years ago)

But yeah, my girlfriend's little brother is due to appear before magistrates this Friday for doing what Banksy does.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Monday, 25 September 2006 12:59 (nineteen years ago)

What, giving a false name?

― mark grout (mark grout), Monday, 25 September 2006 13:09 (nineteen years ago)

i did go in the minimalism bit. i think i recall a big bronze box thing... i think i prefer design, kind of real-world applied shit, to art. they had some magazines in one display and i wanted to just look at them. anyhoo i'm no good at it/talking about it.

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Monday, 25 September 2006 13:12 (nineteen years ago)

also i read all the blurbs (they're TERRIBLE).

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Monday, 25 September 2006 13:12 (nineteen years ago)

wait, N0rmski = B4nksy?

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 25 September 2006 13:20 (nineteen years ago)

No, Banksy was in Genesisy with Phil Collinsy and Mike Rutherfordy.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Monday, 25 September 2006 13:23 (nineteen years ago)

Emma's main love is Modernism and design, we went to the Modernism exhibition (was it at the National? I forget) back in May. She adores Le Corbusier etcetera, loves form to have a function, clean lines and purpose etcetera.

just like when Mr Griffiths painted over Danny Kendall's mural in Grange Hill..

― blueski, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 14:12 (nineteen years ago)

In November 2006, a gang of thieves dressed as council workmen stole a Banksy piece painted on the door of a derelict building in Liverpool.

oh the humanity

― Michael Philip Philip Philip philip Annoyman, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 14:49 (nineteen years ago)

ha ha stole...

he's making a big hairy point about working outside the gilded new york-london loop.

well done banksy.

I like Banksy's stuff too. It's made me laugh, it's made me think and it's made me sit up and take notice. He might not be an artistic genius but neither were The Clash musical geniuses and I think both their works share a similar ethic.

Tracy Emin on the other hand, now there's an emperor with no clothes on if ever I've seen one.

~~Tracy Emin~~contemporary british art collectors on the other hand, now there's an emperor with no clothes on if ever I've seen one.

Who actually buys?

― Mark G, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 16:42 (nineteen years ago)

rich folk.

― That one guy that quit, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 16:42 (nineteen years ago)

i'd like to say it's a bad investment but who the fuck knows?
