The PASSIONS - A Bill Viola Parody

[jackthurland]

this is about 10000 times more dull than a bill viola video.

[dautzen]

Fuck you and your childish behaviour.

[ElviraSanchez1980]

Y por que no en vez de criticar os poneis vosotros a hacer un recorrido artistico que valga la pena?

[carlosgrabadora]

esto es una tonteria este bil viola esta tomando el pelo..

[MrBettedemille]

esto es una parodia sobre el trabajo de Bill Viola

[SemplicePiazza]

more reason!

[arias0clara]

merci!!!!!! Tu fais le vrai art!

gracias por poner a Viola en su sitio.

[ytemiro]

¡Oye cual es el sitio de Viola?

[insuna]

what is this song called...?

[donrocin]

Mr Blue Sky...ELO

[TeganSarahx]

I love this song:D

[dassiebeatrice]

Au moins on a le temps de penser à autre chose !

[xxXJuliosXxx]

my god.... this is beautifull! this is true art!

[SmilingMoonBreeze]

you are so beautiful and funny, thanks :)

[ParkSapin]

Super drôle mec! Il est temps que les artistes* en prennent plein la gueule! Au boulot!!!!

*( juste retour des choses non? )

[AnniePalanie16]

:) hehe

[AnniePalanie16]

Strangest orgasm I ever saw.

[filitube]

Hahaha, very nice.

Some people did not liked because that really captures some ridiculous moments of viola.

If you take the music and some environment aspects from viola you get something like this.

[perromaligno]

buenísimo tío, qué frikez, parodiar a viola! :D

[emmalooroo]

well i kinda like it, it made me laugh. :) theres no need for people to be so offended by it!!

[alicemilonakis]

glorious

[catamarcan]

viola tiende a repetirse... no es difícil ver las limitaciones de su mundo... ¿su discurso artístico está finito?

hoy las valoraciones están a cargo de una caterva de críticos de arte ignorantes y unos comisarios avariciosos

[roryhinks]

this guy is a bellend.

[anozwidelec]

hah! :D yeah something like that bill viola did :P

[kubbikk]

aahahahhhaahha oh myy god , this is not a parody of viola, its a parody of it self, i feel sorry for the guy, he looks like rertard

[kubbikk]

aahahahhhaahha oh myy god , this is not a parody of viola, its a parody of it self, i feel sorry for the guy, he looks like rertard

[kosimino]

trovati qualcosa di meglio da fare,

[rachiochi]

people can like and not like something, even if somone doesnt like somthing doesnt mean they dont understand it. Maybe they dont want to understand its there fucking choice. just because somone isnt into all this high art it doesnt mean there a moron.

[rachiochi]

I have to say the negative comments on this video are pretty pathetic. Whats wrong with parodying Bill Viola? an all this bullshit about being undereducated not being able to understand thats why there making run rararara. I like Bill Viola tooo but some of you guys are so bloody pretentious,

[missmelville]

jaja saco de weas

[libettas]

pathetic idiot

[Wacek4444]

Actually, I found THIS very dull, on the contrary to Viola's vids. It's not insightful,rather pathetic than funny.

After 1 min of watching you get the whole idea.

Well - a filmmaker makes a film, an idiot makes a parody. I guess in case of this guy, Viola's videos worked pretty much like showing a book to an illiterate. One's too ignorant/stupid to understand, so he's laughing his ass off, because the characters look like little maggots to him.

Why not, have a good laugh, kiddo.

[DavidBarile]

That was goofy and fun. I totally cracked up! I love Bill Viola's work and found his slow motion exhibit very moving. So it was all the more titillating to watch this shameless parody.

[trallalala]

to make a bill viola parody, I think, you should make a minimal effort. Dress up for it, think of a similar scenario, pick a similar soundtrack... then the effect would comic. Bill Viola deserves a real parody, not a pathetic childish joke.

[teonapics]

cojonudo JA JA JA

[cavalay]

why a parodie ..it s vidéo art .i like it . thx

[craniocean]

nailed it

(this one shot video at synapse around bill in mid 70's)

[forceofdust]

Don't take it so seriously guys. I don't think even Bill Viola would be as hurt as you all are what with his spiritual nature. Just take it easy and laugh for once. This is hilarious!

[hollowing]

I love bill viola and I loved the passions, it's one of the best exhibitions I've ever seen, but I still found this quite amusing, I agree with the person who said it could have been shorter though.

[dawniebaby01]

i thought this video was pretty kool, i sruggled to get through it until the video sped up. but over all anyone who is creative deserves credit, at least there putting there ideas out there rather than taking the piss out of eveyone elses. : )

[hollowing]

err, that's what this guys doing, taking the piss out of someone else's ideas...

[trotskyteats]

have any of the people hating on this even heard of bill viola? this video is pretty hilarious..

[ydl]

the music is useless, your so called parody is just stupid, not funny at all, just like "piss in the toilet".

that's a pity because the idea could be more than that... please burn this video....

[MarianaXavier]

I really like Viola'a work and I thought the first part was funny, but it could be shorter, i guess.

[blinksumgreen]

He's mocking art done by Bill Viola... you'd need some cultural background to find this amusing at all. I liked it because we have to watch Bill Viola videos in English... and they are so damn boring.

[Buzzchops]

why criticise art you so obviously dont understand?

[tlacoacheloco]

Es una mamada tu video si Viola lo viera te madrea y te hunde hasta el cuello. 2-2 por la copia pero la neta esta muy mamon hasta el foco esta fuera del objetivo

[rejuco]

poor

[franizhere]

it bloody gay

[Tannergrey]

nah ... retarted =)

[franizhere]

wtf?? what is happening?

[SKB123]

its art...stuff happens

[121NarutoFoxDemon121]

i agree its retarded, but the song is cool!!!this is the beatles people!!!1

[MidnightChimes]

actually...it's Electric Light Orchestra...ELO to most.

[MidnightChimes]

Now that's an obscure cultural reference bordering on the esoteric. I'm wondering how many people on YouTube know who Bill Viola are...least of all have seen the work you are doing a parody of.

[teletub]

Chimes my articulate friend, you are so right.

[abeferraro]

I found this video while looking for Bill Viola's work and I think it is rather insightful and funny...obscure or not perhaps, MidnightChimes, it is you who is out of place and not the maker of the video.

[MidnightChimes]

Abe. With all due respect. I'm a Bill Viola enthusiast. Traveled to MOMA in 1990 to see his wonderful video exhibit. Obscure is not meant as an insult. I'd say less than 1% of the users on YouTube know who he is. The comments below back me 100%

[abeferraro]

I take much flack from the un-Art-educated for being obscure...and I don't make it or upload it for them...rather I use youtube to find the obscure, esoteric, and unusual, as well as the rest of the lot. So I feel it necessary to applaud those instances in light of all the haters and indiffernators (I made this word up...sorry).

[SKB123]

yes
