'Kings without a doubt! '
'That is street art at its best!
'awesome'
Praise indeed for a colourful piece on the side of a cafe, entitled 'Last Supper' , so most likely with the owner's permission and with a theme in line with the business - so a 'themed
This piece has now received the much needed seal of approval it craved rest easy children of the art college your knowledge has been shown to be amazing, for this piece isn't merely a humourous cafe drawing on the side of a cafe nooooooo it's the embodiment of the rebellious nature that makes street art so important. Or maybe someone just wants to be friends - please - pretty please?
as silky says "Does Art really need to mean anything?"
ReplyDeleteFirstly, anyone who describes anything as 'awesome' is a guaranteed cunt whose opinion is worthless. Secondly, this pile of turd isn't anywhere near the standard of the typical artwork you see on CBeebies. Even a bunch of 5 year old kids could tell you this is shit.
ReplyDeleteA mural by definition is any piece of artwork painted directly on a wall, ceiling or other large permanent surface. Street Art by definition is art on/from the street. Therefore all painted street art/graff are murals. This piece definitely looks like it's outside. Yes there does look like there is a concept as opposed to no meaning. But your vacuous statement really doesn't say anything more than that even though you try to make it derogatory. What else is there to say other than there are lots of commentators. A sure fire result of success and a haven for snipers. And on fame better be a slog than overnight or handed down from daddy!
ReplyDeletethe important bit - This piece is fresh as fuck !!!
the important question - how many 'themed murals' have puking dogs on the side of cafes???
long live BC x
It's fresh only in the sense that the paint is recently applied. Other than that it's a ugly mess of badly drawn childish cartoon characters.
ReplyDeleteLong live CBeebies. x
Come on Funky, having a jibe at them about painting a legal wall is a bit fuck witted as they have painted more illegal walls than any other cunt out there over the past few years.
ReplyDeleteI like this piece, its better than a grey wall.
I have to disagree with your statement "this pile of turd isn't anywhere near the standard of the typical artwork you see on CBeebies." On Cbeebies there are approx 96 programmes most of which are dross, badly drawn and ill conceived. The 10% which i agree are quality are Bill and Ben (although preferred old skool), Buzz and Tell, Charlie and Lola, Gigglebiz, Grandpa in my pocket, In The Night Garden, Lazy Town, Little Robots, Pingu, Rastamouse, Teletubbies.
ReplyDeleteSo i do not believe your premise is strong with the use of the word 'typical'....
Grandpa in my Pocket is some dope shit, and this mural is the street art equivalent of it.
ReplyDeletelegal walls are still dangerous for illegal writers - wise up armchair critics and let's see your original shnizzle.
ReplyDeletewell i know i'm only a girl in your big bad boys world but i'm a mum and i'm telling you i'd love my kids to watch a Burning Candy BC Cartoon - oh i can't wait - please someone make one...love the wall by the way
ReplyDeletebig up Gold Peg x
IM A BC FAN NO DOUBT BUT I AGREE ANYONE WHO USES THE WORD 'AWSOME' IS A CUNT!!!
ReplyDelete"So i do not believe your premise is strong with the use of the word 'typical'...."
ReplyDeleteSorry, but that's bollocks...Tinga Tinga Tales, Barnaby Bear, Chuggington, Tikkabilla, Octonauts, Muffin the Mule and Fimbles shit all over this.
my nan said you could tell a lot about a man by his choice of children's programmes!
ReplyDeletegeez man that's some crap you listed :Tinga Tinga Tales, Barnaby Bear, Chuggington, Tikkabilla, Octonauts, Muffin the Mule and Fimbles. Rubbish. You've displayed your fine mind. Bollocks brainwashing for your kids and you. You can't compare any how - so why are you comparing tv shows with this great piece of Art on the streets?
ReplyDeleteBurning Candy are legendary!
get out more, spend less time watching kids tv on your own! lol
Yeah, Burning Candy are legendary for not being able to draw. I'm comparing it to kids cartoons to show that this kind of shit isn't even up to the generally accepted standard of art that 5 year olds enjoy.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, this kind of really badly done wank is what makes most street art a bad joke amongst everyone except it's intellectually subnormal fanboys.
BC do some good shit
ReplyDeletebut this looks like a crappy 1980's skateboard graphic
just because you like an artists work (I like most of what I see from half of this crew) doesn't mean you can't see that this is pretty poor. There's almost no composition, the characters are very ugly, and the colours are garish (which I like, being a fan of 1980's skateboard graphics)
So well done for adding some colour to our life, but dudes, try to learn to draw a bit better before inflicting your mind puke on us Bristolians
Fifi and the flowertots are the original shizzle!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see the members of the BC crew go head to head with Stingo, Slugsy and Bumble!
BC are just ripoffs of Barcelona graffiti writers who've doing the same thing since the 80's namely El Xupet Negre with his black dummy everywhere in the city which obviously has been adapted by Sweet Toof and Gold Peg:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.elxupetnegre.com/history.htm
Then there's PEZ doing his fish and La Cha Noir with his cat
http://www.el-pez.com/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cha_(artist)
Just change them to monkeys and owls.
Mix them all up in a naive, and anarchic style like the ONG crew:

Transplant it to the east of end of London mix in some commercial ethos and you get Burning Candy.
They even steal the throwup of the paint roller from a Spanish writer.
I'm just glad Tony Hart isn't alive to see how far 'art' has regressed into infantile ugliness. Every single piece that was ever featured in his televisual gallery of children's art was much better than this wall.
ReplyDeleteOh and let's not forget Kenny Scharfe as most of those characters above look like they came right off one of his works.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.kennyscharf.com/pages/1984/images/worlds_collide.jpg
@BC do some good shit - i'm digging the late 70's/80's SF skateboard graphic style. Bring on the summer of love...
ReplyDeleteThis is just all over the shop. Bad composition/colour choices and ugly characters. That table almost disappears into the background.
ReplyDeleteThe whole thing is like a special needs school mural where everyone can and must have a go at contributing something.
Just another bunch of one trick monkeys, owls,skulls,teeth,pegs etc, etc riding the current trendy retro wave.
They should do a cartoon strip for Vice mag and be done with it.
Anonymous near the top, the wonderful thing about the English language is you can say nothing (in meaning) and still sound derogatory.
ReplyDeleteSome great comments here and if anything, the positives though wildly enthusiastic, say very little, which maybe is indicative of the work they're trying to enthuse about?
At least we're talking about the work, which is something? (Something positive for you all).
wasteman post.
ReplyDeleteit's 2011 and realistically there's no way to do a wall this size illegally
fair enough hating on the doe-eyed praise mentioned above but the wall itself is more than alright. nothing wrong with either colour or composition.
and LOL at whoever took that amount of time to post that many barcelona based links about who's bitten who
I used to think Burning Candy's work always looked so naive and poorly done because they probably had to rush things when doing illegal graffiti, but the fact that their style is exactly the same on a legal wall suggests that actually they're just not very good at art and should probably consider another hobby instead.
ReplyDeletealso...
ReplyDeletefunky, i like your blog, the blind hate in the comments here sometimes seems pretty much the antithesis of .info's tasteless praise but please keep doing it.
Wasteman?
ReplyDeleteThat's like a binman innit?
Another annoying trend of late is white middlecass teenagers and 20 years old adopting South London black slang. Usually wanting to sound tough and ghetto on the internet inbetween doing a graphic design course in the morning, maybe a wall in the afternoon and an on trend dubstep event at night.
Sounds like someone got this mistaken for the ATG blog?
dee i agree for most crews big walls are a no no but BC are known for their big illegal work - here is a bigger piece that was illegal!

ART CRITICISM IS DEAD...
ReplyDeleteLMFAO - YOU HAD A RETHINK DID YOU??? - I THINK 'CRAZY ADVERT' IS BETTER.... LMAO...YOU MAY END UP WITH A JOB AT CHANNEL 5 AT THIS RATE OR A COLUMN IN HELLO....GOOD LUCK.
what is a straight up piece of street art?
ReplyDeleteI don't understand this thread, many of you seem to be trying to slag it off by saying it is reminiscent of or as good as some quality stuff? One guy says the colours are garish like crappy skateboard graphics and that he likes that. And Dr.Flunky is changing his stance to try and strengthen his argument. And i just gathered together a group of 5 year olds from the street and they don't like Cbeebies they prefer Boomerang, Pop and Cartoon Network. I asked their opinion on the piece and there was a resounding "Yes it's great!" so you are wrong again!! lmfao
ReplyDeleteFor all the haters:
ReplyDeleteThey got you talking didn’t they? Surely mission accomplished.
For all the non believers:
Have you been to any of their shows/ Seen any of their work up-close? Its actually quite tight... just because the style is messy doesn’t mean the execution is.
Like all art, street art and graffiti is an evolution. People have leant from other people from the beginning. Who ever put their name up first, someone else thought that was a good idea... and copied.. and its gone on from there. If any of you DO ACTUALLY PAINT, then how many times have you done a bubble or a flare and where did that come from? is your ego THAT BIG that you think you are any more original.. the fact is, these guys put up. They put up all over the fucking world and are one of the most prolific crews.
For all the factualists with your pretty argument fluffing links, you can prove anything with facts.

i love messy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love that random, sloppy Barca style from 10 years ago
ReplyDeletewhich is one of the reasons I like Sweet Toof and Tek33
Pegs and Monkeys and Owls are ok, big crocodiles I'm not so in to
I wouldn't say BC are biting the BCNers - crap graf is a style done by many eg Crew Against People from Poland (Poland? somewhere like that)
I like 80's skateboard graphics because they are over the top with colour and goop and weirdness
I don't much like this piece though, as it looks like the graphic on one of those cheap boards you could buy on the market, where they'd done a rip-off of a quality Powell/Vision/Brand X graphic
5/10, they've done way better illegal pieces
33 posts, and almost none of them slagging off .info
Got to be a record Funky!
Its Bright, Its Colourful, Its in your face, Its makes you smile & Laugh ~ That is what BC is about.....
ReplyDeleteSome people love them, some people hate them, Art is what you make it or want it to be...
Would you call anything by DBK, Dot Com or some other TOY.... Art??
At least BC have the BALLS to get out there and pull something like this off, and not hitting the same old places in Bristol, like the Deaner or the M32...
As for Cbeebies, well the colours in this piece, scream out Rastamouse! I just what to know if they had some Reggae Tunes on, when they painted this?
Are Sweet Toof and Cyclops in exit through the gift shop? If so, I'm off to get some prints to re sell quickly if exit wins at the oscars?
ReplyDeleteDoes any of you kids want a sweetie?
Burning Candy ! hell yeah ..
ReplyDeletethrow up , tear down.
tear up throw down.
them streets are owned.
mother fucker all up in your face.
awesome cunts for sure.
Yeah, I threw up all right. This piece put me right off my breakfast.
ReplyDeleteLove BC as a crew but it's only Cyclops who actually has any talent beyond garish street pieces.
ReplyDeleteDrainpipe becoming a straw is clever use of an existing element.
ReplyDeletehair bear bunch!
ReplyDeleteLL Brainwashed has talent. I always knew this guy was part of the crew Burning Candy but i never looked into him properly and discovered the crazy stuff he creates. This evening i've been looking all over to find pieces and stuff he's done. His work really intrigues me, especially as he seems to vary what he does. I cannot explain how much BC are doing right now, its crazy!
ReplyDeleteFUCK ME YOU'VE NEVER BEEN SO POPULAR! YOU'LL BE PUTTING BURNING CANDY ON THE FRONT OF YOUR MAGAZINE AGAIN INNIT!
ReplyDeleteFuck off Brainsloshed you're like the fetid shit stains on a piece on bog roll hanging out the back of the pockets of your so called crew who barely acknowledge your existence.
ReplyDeleteAll you can do is blog your z list shite on various sites and you can't even do that consistently nor well.
For all your online shenannigans you didn't even get a sniff of a chance of winning a ridiculous urban art award you were so desperately craving.
'FUCK ME YOU'VE NEVER BEEN SO POPULAR! YOU'LL BE PUTTING BURNING CANDY ON THE FRONT OF YOUR MAGAZINE AGAIN INNIT!'
ReplyDeleteNah even that cunt Eine or those piece of shit UAA awards of Sickly's got way more posts than this did.
Go back a page and Sweet Toof's laughable cack poster (only a few 100 quid mind) for the Cirque Du fucking Soleil barely scraped a dozen comments.
But maybe if the few BC fanboys and crew members on here can bump this up a bit?
Always sad to see artists desperately hyping themselves on blogs. It's a sure sign they're shit.
ReplyDeleteI think swearing weakens an argument.
ReplyDeleteThat is all.
Are you in the same sect as Vandalog the mormon moralist?
ReplyDeleteIt's hilarious how BC all talk like ghetto badboys on the internet, but in real life they're tight jean wearing art school posers with double-barrelled names desperately trying to be 'street'. Bit like that wanker who was swinging from the Cenotaph in the student protests really.
ReplyDeleteFor example, there's that muppet James Jessop, A.K.A Tek 33 who goes around tagging on 18th century Hawksmoor churches.
Here's a tip for you James, you middle class nancy boy...real badmen don't do cuntish things like that, and they wouldn't hesitate to knock your fucking teeth out if they saw you doing it.
Well said.
ReplyDeleteNot exactly ghetto tough are they:
http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4038/4638100029_29a990e9ca_b.jpg
And you can take the kiddy masks off lads and lasses as if the police could give a shit about you. If they did they'd just nick you down at any of the gallery shows and media whore events you're doing constantly especially as some of you exhibit under your real names.
real men don't hide behind computer screens writing hundreds of fake comments. pretending to know about shit they do not.
ReplyDeleteSo what don't we know then? Are you going to enlighten us about how gangsta it is to attend the Royal college of art, or vandalise a church?
ReplyDeleteSilly cunt. BC are the only ones pretending here.
what's the difference between a church and a bus stop?
ReplyDeleteif you're a vandal you vandalise shit. it's a stupid argument to say that a vandal can't vandalise something because it's a place of worship or because it's 200 years old. a vandal doesn't care. they don't walk around the streets with a history book, assessing whether a building that they don't own should or should not be painted on! VANDALS VANDALISE THINGS! if you like graffiti you're gonna have to accept that a large part of it is VANDALISM and love sees no colour, if you catch my drift!
this whole "class" issue is also a pointless argument, as life isn't really as simple as that. It's not the 1920's. What makes you middle class? Owning a car? A tv? Having a job in an office? Or does it not matter what you do with your life, it only matters the life you were born into, something out of your control?
and there's an idea that a middle class background gives you more to rebel against than a lower class background - such as the soul-sucking boredom of the suburbs!
James Jessop can't be middle class as he doesn't even have a home (he's sleeping in his studio) and doesn't own a car. I doubt he owns a tv either. As I'm sure you've noticed, he doesn't have a double-barreled name either. And he's a painter, a job you do with your hands, a trade you learn, we could therefore argue that he's working class.
While I'm sitting here, I might as well add that I've never seen an interview with any member of this crew where they describe attending the RCA as "gangsta". Maybe the monkey kid thinks he's gangsta, but then he's rubbish, so they wouldn't let him in to art school!
You obviously don't know shit about graffiti if you think real writers vandalise historic churches.
ReplyDeleteYou sound just like that mug Dave the Gimp, pontificating like yet another posh mummy's boy trendy Brick Lane poser desperate to be part of a culture that you don't understand and where you're not wanted.
Only completely moronic street art pricks who are not part of the graffiti would assume that 'vandals vandalise everything' without regard.
ReplyDeleteWrong you retarded cunt. Graffiti writers choose their targets carefully and have ethics. If you think otherwise then show me the pictures of where any respected graffiti writer has ever vandalised a historic church.
Thinking about it, it's strange how street artists and their sycophantic fanboys are the people who keep banging on the loudest about vandalism like it's something glamorous, and are always portraying themselves as such renegades...even though they rarely (if ever) actually do any, and if they do then they choose the softest targets like industrial canalside backwaters or a church. It's fucking pathetically weak to the point where I almost feel embarrassed by proxy for you and your kind.
Now fuck off you muppet and stop talking shit as if you know what you're on about, it's deeply insulting to graffiti writers and you're just making yourself and BC look even more like a bunch of fake wannabe plastic badboys.
Hey Nolions are just pissed off that hardly anyone comments on your blog and read your longwinded essays on your blog that you've migrated over here for someone to interact with by defending your wacky BC heroes?
ReplyDeleteOi! don't drag me into your stupid arguments!
ReplyDeleteI don't want to be part of your little hate-fest, I just come here for a little laugh at the nonsense
"John Prescott" is talking about vandals, not writers. Can't you read?
I'm sure as shit not interested in being part of graffiti culture, since there's too many rules in something that's supposed to be rebellious!
Uh???
And it's pretty stupid to say I'm posh. I didn't go to the RCA - I went to college in Luton, where I grew up (on the edge of Lewsey Farm to be specific, one of the biggest shit-holes I've had the misfortune to spend time in) My mum grew up in a council flat, my dad in a little flat above a shop, where he lived with his plumber father. Well posh.
I've never "posed" on Brick Lane. I've never painted on Brick Lane. I avoid Brick Lane like the plague, except for the occasional late night beigel and cup of tea.
Your weak little attack on me therefore has no basis in fact, and shows you can't even read the posts on this site. Tell me again why it is I want to be part of your culture? Does it mean I have to hang around with people who make up stories? Do you and your mates sit around making up stories about all your fantastic graffiti adventures? Ah, so sweet. Do you take turn bringing little cream cakes to your coffee mornings?
Bad boys like you should take your BC hate to the street and start crossing some pieces, not crying on blogs about how they disrespected your God.
Go suicide bomb their galleries you fundamentalist cry-baby!!!
First of all, shut it Gimpsta! We all know you wear tight jeans, so get back to your luxury caravan.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, the middle classes would love to have everyone believe that class is a 'pointless argument'....we'll I suppose it might be if you're middle class, but the reality is that severe and deep class divisions exist in this country, with the middle classes having much easier access to high paid jobs, better education, housing etc. Not the 1920s, but right now in 2011, and anyone who says otherwise is either a liar or insulated from reality in a cosy bubble of privilege
There's a kind of unspoken apartheid going on, even their accents open doors to them that will be forever closed to working class people. And not content with having all of these advantages, they then want to appropriate the only thing they don't have, which is the sense of 'cool' and credibility that surrounds an authentic street culture. So the hipster pricks swarm into east London from their Berkshire villages, try to pretend they're part of working class culture (and fail miserably), while all the while riding off the back of it and diluting it for profit, because they were never sincere in the first place. It's a sickening form of exploitative colonialism. Then when they get bored they can always return to their comfortable suburban existence, because they were just acting out a contrived roleplay all along.
Fuck off you predatory parasite ghetto tourist fake CUNTS!!!!!
what an ill informed un-factual bitter load of rubbish. get off your high horse.
ReplyDeletewhy dont you come out and tell us who you are?
then we can decide what class YOU are and if you belong in london.
seeing as you stated "coz I been living and working the streets of London since the mid 1990's" that means you have only been in london for 10 years - you FAKE, why are you trying to preach to everyone? using words like "coz" trying to sound working class while you type!?
stop putting your insecurities on others... incase you did not notice you are the bumpkin and you are the person who craves attention for doing a worthless talentless blog. sad man.
whats even sader is that you are obviously a disgruntled artist/graffer who has resorted to focusing on others rather than himself, channeled through nothing more than jealousy and bitterness. you get one life... you should live yours.
You've got the wrong person. I wrote the previous comment, but not the one about having been in London for 10 years. I've lived in London all my life. You also seem to have got me confused with the person who writes this blog. I only comment here.
ReplyDeleteSeeing as you seem to be addressing at least 3 different people as if they were one, then what you're saying therefore becomes a mess of confused and irrelevant bullshit...just like this BC wall.
you, him, her, whatever i don't care. you all sound like you came out the same cunt.
ReplyDeleteits hard to tell the difference between one pathetic attention seeker to the next!
your all the same. you have nothing better.
i actually feel sorry for you... you must have a lot of insecurities if you have to write essays on blogs about class, so you can justify your existence to yourself. its laughable.
keep on moaning while street art penetrates its cock deep in your arse. losers.
HOW ODD THAT THE POST JUST BEFORE THE LAST HAS BEEN DELETED. IT SAID YOU ONLY CAME HERE TO COMMENT AND THAT YOU ARE NOT THE OWNER OF THE BLOG. CENSORSHIP?!
ReplyDeleteFuck me a shitty spazzed out BC wall turned into a little hate rant about class and who you think is gangsta enough.
ReplyDeleteYou keyboard warriors are the gayest fucking thing I've seen in a while, do any of you paint, or just cry a lot onto each others dicks?
No, the gayest thing ever seen is all the street art fanboys queuing up to suck BC cock because they think this moronic kiddie art is trendy. It's nauseating to watch.
ReplyDeleteThats pretty gay too, you're both as fucking bad as each other, fan boys and keyboard warriors.
ReplyDeleteWhat I can't understand is why after going to some of the country's most elite and prestigious art schools, this lot are still so shit at painting!?
ReplyDeleteAre they just so bad at art that they're beyond any help? Or is it just some kind of ironic hipster Shoreditch twat fashion thing to paint like you're an 8 year old mong?
The latter.
ReplyDeleteAnd possibly the former.
