hayleyhatcherm 11 months agoRiff, you are so knowledgable and awesome. Okay, just like the guy who did this, you are so holier than thou. You don’t deface someone elses art period. Famous or not, it is disgusting. He is a pathetic attention whore. The “untouchable” art world is all he is looking for acceptance from. Like I said, pathetic.

AdventureNeckbeard 11 months agoAs an artist this guy should have known better. There’s is no bullshit excuse that condones this type of behavior, especially being some uptight “activist artist” asshole. As an artist myself. Even if I didn’t like someones work, I would never, EVER disrespect another mans art in any form. This guy is pathetic.

LaucoCo 11 months agoUgh, what an asshole. It’s not a ‘critique’, it’s a poor attempt at dragging attention by ruining somebody else’s work. I don’t care if that is done to a Picasso or to the work of any non famous painter, it’s just disgusting that you are arrogant enough to ruin someone else’s work to ‘criticize’ the way curators and society make an apoteiosis to art pieces. It is wrong in so many levels. I mean, so if someone kills him and says he did it to make a statement on how mankind are selfish it will be ok because he was trying to prove a point? I hope that man goes to jail for a long time.

Riff a year agoI’m not a fan of the actual design he sprayed on, nor do I like his work, but I do rather admire the action. That is, critiquing the idea that a piece of art is ‘priceless’ or somehow untouchable or transcendent, which is really how people treat these things (calling it ‘defacement’ or even ‘desecration’, bestowing a sacred quality to the object). Also, what if he was a brilliant painter? Would you see his addition as more acceptable? Robert Rauschenberg completely erased a de Kooning drawing, but that act is revered as an artistic statement.
The Dadaists were in a similar vein, even if they, ironically, were absorbed into museum canon, as well…
