MARK MCGOWAN STABBED TO DEATH

[mwinnful]

so there you have it, fancy stabbing someone? Hide the body in a gallery.

[neovintageretro]

Hell, In the US they'd steal your wallet! You don't have it too bad over there. :D

[IdaSputum]

People who walk past are bastards. In a gallery they gave about 3 secs more attention. WOW! Says it all.

THIS is a BRILLIANT piece of art. It high-lights the selfish indifference of most people. SAD

[B0rnles13]

Not bad, though I wonder how many people in the street scene noticed the Camera Man?

Did anyone kick you just a little to see if you were alive or dead?

Did anyone try to rob you, thinking you were dead?

There should have been a lot more blood for a knife in the chest, how do I know? Well it's obvious really, the 'blood' looked dry to me, but fair doe's at least you are creating stuff

[shangrigreige]

Hey kids, don't do art.

[ButherLi55ett]

Don't see the need or point of doing it in a gallery. Why not do it in several locations on the street instead where it can have some influence and who knows what may come of a chance encounter.

hours of fun



[googlevideosrule]

crazy murfucker

[MissAraya92]

Stabbing people is really bad XD

[chrisvalentinemusic1]

tis all most Christ like  !

[Verschrankung]

too bad this isn't real

[ignoranttwat]

Mark McGowan>>>>>> Damien Hirst

[Bjarku]

mark mcgowan is the english da vinci. what is the music in this?

[WayneRooney09]

That Blood Is So FAKE!

[ganondorf59]

Pathetic. Have you ever stabbed somebody for real? I have, this is a pathetic portrayal of a much bigger deal.

[almanacofsleep]

@ganondorf59 how many people have you stabbed?

[eiraq]

I think it's important not to stab people as well. Well Done!

[OBDeAlessi]

while what you say might be right, this is no tthe case as he is representing exactly what people want to see...it's not about being stabbed, it's about what the media make out of it, I think.

[olymkan]

i would have taken his hat and shoes just to make my point, nobody gives a S**T about mark mcgowan

ooooh your so hard done by, you saw people getting stabbed. if u want to prevent knife crime try patrolling the streets of london at night in a cape & mask with your pants over you trousers, with a bit of luck someone might mistake you for a supehero and drop the knife.

Its people like you who are destroying the British art scene.

[olymkan]

your desperation is pathetic

[OBDeAlessi]

oh, stop it...it's people like Damien Hirst who are destryoing the British art scene.

[olymkan]

come off it, this isn't art and it requires little thought and absolutely no talent. some people get stabbed for their money because the attacker is poor, and this guys getting money to lay on the floor.. it's contradicting the message hes trying to purvey

[OBDeAlessi]

oh and by the way ,could you tell me what your idea of "art" is, then?

And why do you even bother making comments about this video if you think that "nobody gives a S**T about Mark McGowan"?

Just to know, it's curious...

[olymkan]

art is any form that has been created by human So technically i could meet the requirements of this definition by taking a dump.

i determine an artist as someone who shares and express's the ideas and beliefs of a great number of people not for money not for fame but for the people

mark uses shock media the concept that if you see smoke you run to see whats burning it's annoying when its force fed to us through the media the reason i came to these videos in the first place was an aol news report

[kidkustom]

@olymkan Is he getting payed to do this?

[hyperbumrush]

@olymkan

please sage olykman, tell us the true meaning of art......

[TheHolySpirit]

@olymkan If it's not art that requires little thought, then why did you give it what seems very much like an art critique which you have given some thought to and found important enough to share as a comment? I too wondered if it was art, but after seeing your comment I realised it must be. Thanks for clearing that up. ;)

[SPFXsynthesisers]

@olymkan your a complete tool

[regvarney]

What a middle class cunt.

[olymkan]

Agreed

[OBDeAlessi]

wow, this is a really good idea...

[olymkan]

BOOOO!

[YesYesYouAreRight]

no very funny,

could cause a heart attack in an on-looker.

.

Woul dbe best done for public order offences; he could do it for real in jail, when he get there, after say four publc-street appearances.

2:40

I saw a dead person once, he was leaning over a mail box on Sutter Street; some guys poked him and he didn't move so seven-eleven called the cops.

.

I left before conformation

[DeDomenici]

What a bunch of Brick Lane Bastards!

Although perhaps the blood wasn't quite dark enough.

[drosier]

I really liked seeing this piece both on the street and in a gallery setting. I am thinking that the videoing of the work would have mediated it for/to those people passing by outside? I wonder if you would have got a different response if the camera op hadn't been there.

I wonder to what extent you consider the film to be documentation and to what extent a finished piece in itself? I would also be interested to know if you had considered what you would do if someone dialed 999?
