wow--four stories... w/a bungie cord... he's really experiencing what those office workers experienced on 9/11... this is as bad as Drew Barrymore getting ecstatic over going "poo" in the woods...
OK I'LL JUST THROW UP!
GODSPEED!
I would face my fears alone, instead of seeking my 15 minutes by defecating on the graves of those who died.
I didn't read anywhere that he has been doused in jet fuel, burned alive, choked on poisonous smoke, or known for sure that he was dead.
Now THAT would be a statement!
The day I ripped the quadricep in my leg, I wrote a poem!
Sheesh, were do they find these people and who uses the phrase 'artistic response', anyway?
Skarbakka, Chewies younger, artistic, and somewhat "special" brother.
It's a pity his art won't make an impression.
Pure BS. That's all.
How about pictures?
One SICK puppy!
pathetic
Wow. He's on another level. I'm just a dope. All I got out of 9/11 is that we were attacked by evil terrorists practicing "The Religion of Peace", and that we need to pay them back by eradicating them.
I stubbed my toe the other day, and my artistic response was to yell FU*K!
lol my feelings too
Maybe this idiot can remind us again why we actually need the Patriot act.
"I was so distraught, I needed some way to find an artistic response,'' he said.
More blithering "art-speak" - today's modern artists ( I use the term loosely), are encouraged, trained, cajoled and sometimes downright demanded to "express" whatever thought or feelings that float through their transom, and because it's "art", it doesn't matter if it offends people - if anything, they'll say it's offensiveness makes it "better" "art" (and nets the artist press, the Holy Grail of the Moderne Artiste).
These dolts are so arrogant, that they think that they HAVE to express these feelings in ways that others HAVE to be involved, art to them is a narcissitic process: instead of trying to explore his feelings about 9-11 in a more mature, heartfelt manner that's also more PRIVATE, he makes a spectacle of it all, so above all else, no matter what the message is, or why he's doing it...
It's ALL ABOUT HIM.
People like this will never create high art - a true artist would seek to create a work that would transcend his own personal feelings and encompass the event, the people involved, the people who witnessed it, AND his own feelings.
The sculpture of the raising of the flag at Iwo Jima is a perfect example.
This guy is a hack.
