  1. dface makes me sick. not just vomit, but full exorcist style, carrot & blood chunder...why? because this is a guy who has made a career by...
    starting 10 years ago as a 30year old drawing a photoshop cartoon image a 15 year old would be shamed of - now he must be 40. as an adult why do you want to still draw the same thing? when he croaks, his backcatalgoue will be the most boring waste of pages ever.
     ripping off artists, adding nothing new or not subverting the statement, just pure ripping off for ££££. to me its the same as people that print canvases of banksy walls. there is no art in what he does...NOTHING...if you think its aesthetically pleasing, chances are its to do with the original artist.
    he has built a career around being a street artist. but he has NEVER done any work on the street that doesnt involve a legal spot, doing it for a gallery, doing it when there is a new show/product to promote, or money involved. seriously...never. its hard to conjure up one instance, let alone a long history of unpaid streetartwork. hes such a liar. dont call yourself a streetartist, call yourself a contemporary artist (ha!)...but seriously...you have no history in putting up for the thrill of it, for the sake of it....its all about branding for you...branding and publicity.
    christina aguilera? please.
    this work at ch4 sums up d' perfectly. doing a very boring, lame, cliched, overused and crap to start with art, legally, for lots of money, and used to promote the dumbing down (the antics roadshow?) of street art. he is getting paid shitloads to do shit work to promote the death of street art...and thing is? dickheads will love it

    argh! (head explodes)

  2. ive always wondered...if dface and artists like shepard fairey and kaws STEAL other peoples work (litchenstein, warhol, whoever) and use the stale word 'homage'...can i then start going round creating a long career making money by sticking wings on peoples heads and ripping dface off and making £££££ but always saying its 'a homage'....i wonder how he would feel? or what the fuck he could say?

  3. I'm going to kill people, wait until they've started to rot, then stick dface wings on them and gaffer tape them to lamp posts, as a homage to how this gereatric graphic designer has killed street art

    then send a clown to his house to throw a bucket of pink acid at him. that should de-face him nice and proper

  4. he probably wouldn't give a fuck. Maybe he would post a huge rant about how you are not a real street artist but rather a "contemporary artist." Like all of a sudden the whole game changes. Art's content and form is just as important as its setting.

    Yo for real, stop fighting the art world yo. It's like these guys are trying to make some money dude, just get on your grind son. Stop hating. Just stop it. LIke.. don't buy it if you don't like it? I don't own a single piece of obey-wear, but i'll wear the shit out of some supreme. You and I are already equal in our significance to any of these people.
