Maybe his suicide was performance art?

He certainly didn’t bring much beauty into the world.

They can stick the Colonel and Siggy baby in the coffin with him. They won’t be missed.

Have you no TASTE?? The booger needs two hairs in it to qualify as "ART". C'mon, get with the program. :=)

I went to computer tech school at Control Data in the mid 80’s.. Was going to be hired by NASA at the Glenn Center, but they had to hire a minority woman. Went to work night shift in a sheet metal shop to pay my bills. Pretty bitter about that. The Control Data school was a complete gov’ment scam.

Don’t forget brave. It takes true bravery to make art like this.

Artist? Being an artist myself and working hard to make something good these guys frustrate the heck out of me.

They make beaucoup bucks and then can’t cope...it’s hard not to feel they are spoiled.

I mean, at least when Van Gogh offed himself he left real art behind.

Sorry for anyone who loved him, but now the artworld vultures will raise the price on that junk.

Ah you tasteless uncultured mouthbreathing conservative philistines. You just don't appreciate the genius of such progessive, nuanced, boundary breaking art--just ask any liberal Occupier--they will be glad to explain.

Glitch! I have no clue why my post to another thread ended up here! However, I’m planning on doing a series of Booger/Hair ART, that will stun the Art World!
