Yeah, F Tracey emin!

I like the idea of being stuck. Why the big deal with (visible)progression?

[kucingktn]

Add me, your videos are really cool

[plopnod]

It's just all so subjective.Taste is taste,as is perspective

[nothke]

I think so called "conceptual artists" should move to advertising business, it would finally have some obvious fundamental meaning, it would get a ton more money for them, and thus would relieve the critiques.. But I guess they just want a Turner!

@nothke Weird... This comment should've been on the other video..

I bet this is actually Charles Thomson.

Do you feel a bit silly about all this stuff now? And that absolutely ridiculous "is my shoe art" argument that you wheeled out on Paxman?

I don't see why you care what people class as art. It has no effect on your life whatsoever. It's not like people would be queuing round the block to see your stuff if Damien Hirst wasn't around.

But one day Damien Hirst's work will be displayed with a footnote stating "Half of the world doesn't consider it art"... This is how art history goes on, right?

[Stuckstuckstuck]

Sorry to disappoint, but I doubt if he'd like to fuck you.

OK, Damien Hirst's work will just have to be displayed with a footnote quoting Damien Hirst:

"I had a big dance with conceptual art, but there are things in art that are a dead end. Conceptual art, abstraction, they're total dead ends. You start thinking, there's enough bloody objects in the world, why are you making more of this shit."
