I expect Pure Evil will probably sign him up for a solo show, and all of the usual London payola street art bloggers, hipsters, freeloaders and assorted hangers-on will be at the private view sipping ironic ouzo cocktails that are made to resemble petrol bombs.

Yeah, less said about Upfest the better. Unless anyone is into really bad hippy sci-fi fantasy art crossed with the kind of misshapen, twee, naive work by hobby painters from a village art society, and all interspersed with liberal doses of photoshop.
Obviously I meant 'payola' in the first post above, not 'payloa'. As in the bloggers, magazine editors, photographers etc. who accept free gifts/hospitality in return for heavily promoting certain content. I think we all know who they are. The overview of 'street art' the public gets from these sycophantic parasite cunts is so skewed toward the commercial interests they represent that it makes FIFA look like a shining example of ethics and morality by comparison.
Then there's the weird spectacle of them all desperately jockeying for position to be the first one allowed to stick their tongue up the arse of whatever 'big-name' international artist has flown in to sell some tat this week. What a fucking sad life it must be to have to derive your status in life from attempting to be the biggest toadying street art groupie in London.
UpFest was actually pretty fucking good this year.not that my opinion counts for shit here (or anywhere for that matter) but just for the record, there wasnt many stencillers . Secret Wars was amazing. Reepsone fucking killed it - again ! and all money donated for charity. how can anyone knock that.
fucking hell get off all fours you simpering sheep. Anyone who would get inspired at some sort of hokey event like this mixture of a kids finger painting event/jumble sale must be easily amused.
You probably think Punch and Judy is some cutting edge performance highlighting domestic violence.
Secret Wars? Just some pen sponsored bollocks of a night where illustrators dance around for free like inky monkeys whilst Monorex get the cream.

ReplyDeleteupfest = fucking pointless boring shit, passed it geezers with nothing to say and talentless young cunts trying to make some money. pile of shit.
ReplyDeletemoney for charity is obviously not a bad thing, but doesn't make it exempt from criticism.
question is "did you go ?" ,somehow i doubt it. Even the most cycnical of folks would've found something there to inspire them.
