Its nice to see John Macleans, Pitch Black Heist win a BAFTA … this mans talent has no end.

I remember John sharing his short film Man on a Motorcycle with me, back when i was at Nokia, it was shot entirely on a Nokia phone, and unfortunately I was unable to help him with his request to retrieve some footage from a damaged handset…. I bet Nokia wished they made more effort to help me in this endeavour now :)

Art I like No. 31………. Robert Del Naja

Highly under estimated in the world of graffiti, turned fine art (now that everyone has an opinion, 30 years since it landed on our shores) is Massive Attacks 3D… other wise known as Robert Del Naja.

Long before Massive Attack, and the Wild Bunch days, I remember 3D and the Bristolian crew, taking on our Chrome Angelz at Londons Jubilee Gardens – now the home of the London Eye – at some early 80′s summer Hip Hop event put on by Tim Westwood, as part of the Rapattack festival created by the Shaw theatre in Euston.

While later generations such as Banksy seem to have captured the imagination of contemporary art fans, 3D’s work slowly matures. And in my mind is some of the best examples of the spray can medium.

#HENNESSYYOUNGMAN … on Performance Art

Posted in Art, Blogs, Guru's, Video Clips with tags , , , , , on February 6, 2012 by mat bickley

Cant get enough of Hennessy Youngman’s insights to the world of art practice and theory.

Favourite quotes:

“the whoopee cushion was a fatal strike that sounded the death knell of the avant garde in europe”

Favourite performance pieces you can use free of charge curtsey of Hennessy:

“Run into ex-girlfriend in the street and she’s know dating another girl. Have an awkward conversation and after you say your goodbyes and walk away, you can hear the both of them laughing cruelly… piece”

For you fans of #Calligraphy
