What a skinny jean wearing hipster muppet. I bet he deliberately splashed paint all over his clothes like that, just so that he can walk around Brick Lane in them, wearing retro sunglasses with a fag hanging out of the corner of his mouth and look 'bohemian' to all of the other home-counties public school twats around there.
here we go again - "How dare he paint in the street if he didn't grow up in a council flat having to steal lead from the church roof to pay for his old man's fags!!!" When are you lot gonna get over yourselves. The streets are for everyone, rich, poor, black, white, muslim, buddhist, dog, cat, etc.
anyway...
the bad thing about this clip is the "art"
it's like a bad version of Paul Insect meets Faile - and that is VERY bad
Cyclops is so much better than this
I don't have any issues with street artists selling work in galleries or working with brands, but I hope they paid him shit-loads of cash because this video makes him look really bad
No...the communities where some of us have lived our whole lives is not a place for toffee nosed little mummy's boys to suddenly decide to use as a way to advertise their gallery careers and push multinational brands. Those type of opportunist parasites are not welcome and had better stay well away.
Robbo isn't some wanker from a Buckinghamshire village though, he's from the streets of London, and was in the game for the love, way before there was any money to be made from it. So he's earnt the right to do whatever the fuck he wants.
Maybe we are doing things, but we just don't feel the need to make videos of ourselves sucking corporate cock. Anyone cuntish enough to use the walls of our communities for that ultimate purpose deserves all the bile they get, and more.
Strange how all of these BC bum boys use their real names for gallery shows but a fake name for the street. Seems like they want to have things both ways. It's a bit pointless to have an alias if everybody knows your real name. I guess it must all be part of the pose.
You lot are about as working class as he is, on an art website criticising art with your faux "disgusted of tunbridge wells" attitudes.LOL. it's like reading the Daily Mail in here, obsessed with kiddie fiddlers, celebrity artists and putting the boot into students. Sad, but still very very, amusing.
Anyone who wears a massive corporate logo across the front of their body, or appears in videos encouraging other people to do so is a bit of a stupid cunt really.
The shame of it, he isn't trying to subvert sponsorship or to divert it in a creative way, he just stands there like a two bit whore with a massive adidas logo on his chest saying 'fuck me anywayyouwanna'. Whether yuppie or working class, he has to be up there as CUNTOFTHEYEAR and it's only March!
Must be great to do a show for Black Rat Gallery and present portraits which were painted by the poor in Thailand and then add crap doodlings on top. What a guy!
Who did he have painting for him to get in to art school?
Oh yeah, of course. We're all so jealous of his skinny jeans, tight homoerotic sweater, heavy rimmed spectacles with no glass in them and studiously paint splattered appearance. We all wish we could be hipster pricks strutting effeminately down Brick Lane and trying to fake a cockney accent. Hahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa! You mug.
Heavens forbid an artist should be able to earn some easy money. You'd all do it for an easy buck, oh no, you wouldn't, you're all stuck behind your office desks pretending to be salt of the earth working class. Too bad you and your parents were too fucking stupid to get their lives out of the rut they're in
Don't judge us all by your own pathetically low standards. I personally would never make myself look such an absolute cunt for even double the measly amount of money he's likely to have got for this.
There are no huge skulls on walls around Brick Lane, a couple in the industrial backwater of Hackney Wick maybe, where nobody even goes and which were just painted for cheap internet fame, but apart from that only an occasional legal spot. Besides, if you can't paint a wall without getting paint all over yourself then you're some sort of dribbling retard. Even so, I suppose that's the only jacket he owns right? That's why he had to wear it in the vid. It wouldn't be anything to do with being an artfag poseur would it.
To collect or preserve the posters was against the group's ethos. As the Atelier Populaire in Paris put it: 'To use them for decorative purposes, to display them in bourgeois places of culture or to consider them as objects of aesthetic interest is to impair both their function and their effect.'
I only paint in my old clothes it's impossible to paint with rollers without getting some splash-back - even if you've only painted the walls of your front room you'd know this
Why would anyone put on their best clothes to go paint (or in this case put up posters)? pasting is a messy business
Do you think chefs wear aprons so they can impress people that they can cook? no, it's to keep food and liquid splashes off of the rest of their clothes, and to wipe their hands on
Your arguments are so full of holes that if they were clothes people would think you are naked
Face it, you're just jealous because this guy has more talent than you, has painted more stuff people like to look at, at just got paid to spend an evening with someone with a camera. If you weren't jealous you wouldn't give a shit!
There's a million talentless people in the music charts, on tv, in galleries, in every job imaginable. That's life. Face it. Talent or not, it takes a lot of passion, energy, dedication, and self-belief to get places. I dare say all those things are more important to get places than talent. If you spent your internet hate energy on trying to be where you think you deserve to be you'd probably be there already!
Shit. Why am I wasting MY time on this energy-sucking mutal wank-fest of a blog!?!? Time to work, got ladders to climb!
Cyclops hasn't sold out. He just loves getting gang raped by corporations and has had stitches in his arse to close the gap from widening from accepting too many bully ramming from 'uncle Adidas' and 'cousin nike'.
Robbo may have been one of the pioneers of UK graffiti - massive respect for that!!! but the plain facts are that most graffiti artists can't take it indoors. It seems their work only works on a large scale basis outdoors. He really should have left his legacy intact because at the moment he seems intent on trampling all over his own integrity! That show looked like a poor attempt by an A level art student it really was embarrassing and not very good at all. Reminded me a bit of an abortion! http://www.flickr.com/photos/streetart-berlin/with/5041488230/ Whereas Cyclops work looks as fresh in the gallery as it does on the street - Cyclops is an artist Robbo is a writer - people should stick to what they are good at - including the haters on here -please be a bit more inventive with your insults - a lot of you are coming over as A level students upper class or working class! Shame about the corporate sponsorship!!!
You seem very confused. It's not about Robbo versus Cyclops, so stop making ridiculous straw man arguments that nobody cares about.
It's about the fact that Cyclops is an artfag poser who did a retarded Jackson Pollock effort on his own jacket to try to look 'hip' and 'trendy' He's a fake cunt, his work is shit and you sound like his gay lover, so shut it!

ReplyDeleteTimes must be hard in the shires. No doubt a range of customised limited edition trainers will soon appear.
ReplyDeleteI suppose at least now we can all drop the pretence that street art isn't really just another thinly disguised form of manipulative advertising.
St pauls, Bristol is hardly the shires
ReplyDeleteSilly little bumpkin boy looks like a human billboard.
ReplyDeleteErrm. An artist in an adidas shirt, in an adidas add. Shock horror.
ReplyDeleteErrm. BC batty boy hipsters on here trying to justify their lame sell out. Shock horror.
ReplyDeleteAt least he was paid to wear a logo
ReplyDeletemost of you muppets pay to wear them!!!
you work a job to earn money to pay to be a walking billboard - it's no wonder you're so jealous of Mr. Cyclops
Yeh, so jealous of Mr Suckcocklops!

ReplyDeletemaybe he got that paint on his jacket by painting many of the huge skulls on walls around Brick Lane
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'd have paint on your clothes too if you actually went out painting
yeah well he only paints on brick lane so he can look cool
ReplyDeleteI'm sure people would think you are cool if you actually went out and painted something
ReplyDeleteI would go and paint but I'm too busy arguing with you middle class twats
ReplyDeleteso I guess arguing with me is the "work" in your "working class" classification
ReplyDeletewell a fellas got to do something since they shut down all the mines
